<p>Georges Seurat’s paintings were considered revolutionary for the time period and deemed him a leader of the Post-Impressionist art movement in Paris, France. His most notable work, A Sunday Afternoon in the Island of La Grande Jatte, sparked the Neo-impressionism movement around the world and earned him a spot as one of the leading icons of the 19th century.</p>
<p>This small panel is one of approximately fifty oil sketches and drawings made as preparatory studies for Seurat's monumental masterpiece, A Sunday on La Grand Jatte. Painted from 1884-86, the scene depicts Parisians at leisure on an island in the Seine. Illustrating Seurat's process of investigation, the figures in the present panel were significantly transformed in the final painting. Seurat's style came to be known as Pointillism (from the French word point, or dot), but he preferred the term divisionism-the principle of separating color into small touches placed side-by-side and meant to blend in the eye of the viewer.</p>
