Georges Seurat

Georges Pierre Seurat (2 December 1859 – 29 March 1891) was a French post-Impressionist artist. He devised the painting techniques known as chromoluminarism and pointillism and used conté crayon for drawings on paper with a rough surface. Seurat's artistic personality combined qualities that are usually thought of as opposed and incompatible: on the one hand, his extreme and delicate sensibility, on the other, a passion for logical abstraction and an almost mathematical precision of mind.

His large-scale work A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte (1884–1886) altered the direction of modern art by initiating Neo-Impressionism, and is one of the icons of late 19th-century painting.

He trained under Henri Lehmann. Among his most cited paintings: The Circus Parade, Bathers at Asnières, and A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte. His principal genres were genre painting, landscape painting, and portrait.
