Seurat Most Famous for Paris Park Painting Yet Half His Paintings Were Seascapes

The most famous painting is in Chicago, with Grant Wood's American Gothic and Edward Hopper's Nighthawks.

I have seen it several times.

Un dimanche après-midi à l'Île de la Grande Jatte is an impressive work. Seeing it in a book or online doesn't do it justice.

		Particularly because, although there are smaller "study" versions as he worked up to it, the painting itself is 10 feet wide and most references don't include that context (at least not visually, they often list the numbers.)

Went to this exhibition in London two weeks ago and can highly recommend!
