About this picture
View of the Seine is a public-domain painting by Georges Seurat, dated 1882–83. Oil on wood. The file comes from The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
“View of the Seine” (1882–83) uses Seurat’s divided color. A small sheet is usually a study. It is not automatically the Grande Jatte itself.
About the artist
Georges Seurat (1859–1891) built pictures from small dots of contrasting color. A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte is the large canvas. Many other works are studies for it or for the same method.
