Georges Seurat
Georges Seurat was a French post-Impressionist painter best known for developing the technique of pointillism, where small dots of color are applied to the canvas to create vibrant compositions. His most famous work, 'A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte,' exemplifies this method and showcases his meticulous attention to color theory and optical effects. Seurat’s use of the point as a foundational element in his paintings has had a lasting impact on modern art.
