English | 2015 | ISBN: 0300208359 | 248 pages | PDF | 20 MB
This revelatory study of Georges Seurat (1859-1891) explores the artist’s profound interest in theories of visual perception and analyzes how they influenced his celebrated seascape, urban, and suburban scenes. While Seurat is known for his innovative use of color theory to develop his pointillist technique, this book is the first to underscore the centrality of diverse ideas about vision to his seascapes, figural paintings, and drawings.
