painting

• “A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte” To really appreciate this painting, you have to look up close. George Seurat painted this beauty in 1884 utilizing a style now known as pointillism, which uses thousands of tiny dots of pure color that come together and form a cohesive image when viewed at a distance. Think about how much work must have gone into creating an image of this scale!
