Georges-Pierre Seurat was a Neo-impressionist painter from France. He was a pioneer of the post-impressionist movement in art. He is credited as the founder of painting techniques like 'chromoluminarism' and 'Pointillism.' He used tiny brushstrokes of pure color side by side to capture the effects of light in his paintings. He was inspired by the scientific ideas of color form and expression, and intrigued by how the usage of elements of light brought out the vividness as opposed to just mixing colors directly on the canvas. His style of painting inspired many artists like Paul Signac, Henri-Edmond Cross, Maximilien Luce. His most famous works include 'A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte,' 'Bathers at Asnières,' 'La Seine à la Grande-Jatte,' and 'Jeune femme se poudrant.' His Conté crayon drawings, wherein he used a mixture of wax and charcoal or graphite, are also critically acclaimed. His works also greatly influenced Cubic artists in the 1900s.
