Seurat was born on 2 December 1859 and was a French Post-Impressionist painter
and was also a draftsman. He is a very well-known figure in the sphere of
painting. He is very well noted for his innovative usage of drawing media. He
also devised various painting techniques such as pointillism with Paul Signac and also developed Chromoliminarism.
One of his
large scale and famous art work named “A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La
Grande Jatte”(1884-1886) is known to have altered the way of Modern art as it
initiated Neo-impressionism.

pupil of Henri Lehmann.
