 | | Seurat, known for his innovative movement known as pointillism, was not used in this painting. |  | | But, it grew on me. Perhaps one has to be familiar with Seurat and his style of painting. |  | | Although I could not find any history about the painting or what Seurat was thinking at the time he was painting, I still find this to be an excellent painting. |

| | GEORGES SEURAT |
 | | Suddenly, Seurat found that he was the most controversial figure on the artistic scene in Paris. |  | | Late in 1889, when Seurat was approaching 30, he moved away from the bustling Boulevard de Clichy to a studio in a quieter street nearby, where - unbeknown to his family and friends - he lived with a young model, Madeleine Knobloch. |  | | Whether in Paris or at the coast, Seurat was never a great socializer and in the last year of his life he virtually cut himself off from friends. |

| | Cirque, par Seurat |
 | | Seurat painted the flat frame for the painting, and it bears his signature. |  | | Robert L. Herbert who has pointed out similarities between certain of Chéret's posters and Seurat's compositions proves that the clown is identical (only reversed) with one in a poster by Chéret of 1880, executed for the Spectacle-Promenade de l'Horloge in the Champs-Elysées. |  | | But the drawing in that poster bears no comparison with Seurat's painting it is heavy, clumsy, the horse moves sluggishly, the rider is ungraceful whereas in Seurat everything gallops and cavorts. |

 | | Seurat, for many art historians, is the anti-Impressionist. |  | | The Art Institute also worked with scientists and X-ray equipment to learn the order in which the figures were painted, how they were changed along the way, and how some of the pigments have changed over the years. |  | | But Seurat once told an interviewer, "I found myself while studying others," and the Art Institute's exhibit elegantly demonstrates that claim. |

| | Metroactive Stage Sunday in the Park With George |
 | | The first act is set in 19th-century France, where Seurat works on his future masterpiece as he struggles for recognition among his fellow artists and tries to keep his relationship with his mistress, Dot, from falling apart. |  | | In the latter half of the play, Seurat's great grandson, also an artist named George (also portrayed by Babin), struggles with the dilemma of patronage--he needs financial support to continue his work, but understandably balks at kowtowing to his sponsors. |  | | S HAKESPEARE asserted that all the world's a stage, but to 19th-century pointillist painter George Seurat it was a canvas. |

 | | That Seurat would be a revolutionary figure in the history of art is rather surprising, but his theory of "divided color" would lead to his distinctive style of pointillism. |  | | The exhibition looks not only at Seurat's early work, such as a sketch for "Bathing Place, Asnières" (1883-84) and the studies that he did for this painting, but also the works of Claude Monet, Pierre Auguste Renoir, and Camille Pissarro, that Seurat admired. |  | | Then there are works by Paul Signac and Lucien Pissarro, both of whom shared Seurat's interest in the divided-color/pointillist technique and which were featured in the same room at the exhibition that first presented "La Grande Jatte" to the world at the eight Impressionist exhibition in May 1886. |

 | | Prior to its acquisition by the Art Institute of Chicago, the painting was owned successively by Seurat's mother, Maximillien Luce, Edmond Cousturier, and Charles Vildrac. |  | | One becomes absorbed in the geometric order that Seurat has imposed on the scene and this certainly is an opposite value to that of Impressionism. |  | | Pissarro, Signac and other artists attracted by the pointilliste method were somewhat led astray by the assumption that it opened up a new prospect solely in terms of translating light into colour. |
