    Georges Seurat – portrait of the painter

    “Harmony is the analogy of contraries, the analogy of similars, of tone, of colour, of line, considered by the dominant and under the influence of a lighting, in gay, calm or sad combinations.”

    Georges Seurat

    Georges Seurat belongs to Cezanne, van Gogh and Gauguin among the most important painters who paved the way for modernism. Under the influence of naturalistic color theories, Seurat developed a painting style known as pointillism. Its essence is the dense application of tiny colored dots on the canvas in a precisely defined order.

    Paul Cézanne and Georges Seurat were the ones who carried forward the ideas of the still too orderly impressionism and went beyond the mere formulation of current impressions and took the refined starting points forward into post-impressionism. He used a technique based on scientific theories about color.

    The painting A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte (1884-1886) is considered the painter’s most famous work, with this painting he changed direction modern art and started neo-impressionism.
