Georges Seurat: Life and Work - Founder of Pointillism and icon of late 19th-century painting

Georges Pierre Seurat was born in 1859 and was a French post-impressionist artist who also became one of the icons of late 19th-century painting. With his work "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" he altered the direction of modern art by initiating Neo-Impressionism. He developed the painting techniques known as chromoluminarism and pointillism and his artistic personality combines on the one hand his extreme and delicate sensibility and on the other hand a passion for logical abstraction and an almost mathematical precision of mind. He died 1891 at the age of 31 and left his latest work "The Circus" unfinished.
