Seurat and the Sea Exhibition Catalogue
Seurat and the Sea Exhibition Catalogue
Bring home this beautifully illustrated catalogue of the first-ever exhibition dedicated to Seurat’s seascapes and the first devoted to the artist in the UK in almost 30 years.
Georges Seurat (1859–1891) is best known as the creator of the Neo-Impressionist technique, in which shapes and light are rendered by juxtaposing small dots of pure colour. Seurat and the Sea brings together paintings, oil sketches and drawings made during the five summers he spent on the northern coast of France between 1885 and 1890. Working in port towns along the English Channel – including Honfleur, Port-en-Bessin and Gravelines – Seurat captured their seascapes, regattas and port activity in his luminous, atmospheric style.
Due to his untimely death at the age of 31, Seurat left behind a small but extraordinarily influential body of work. Works from The Courtauld – which holds the largest collection of his work in the UK, thanks to the vision of collector and founder Samuel Courtauld – are joined by loans from around the world.
