	WebMuseum: Seurat, Georges: Un dimanche après-midi à l'Ile de la Grande Jatte
		The men, women and children enjoying the sun in the public park on the island of La Grande Jatte in the Seine have the sort of fixity that a moving film acquires when it comes suddenly to a halt; they are frozen in their various attitudes.
		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.
		The comparison that has often been made between the Italian master of the geometrically-conceived composition, Piero della Francesca, and the Seurat of La Grande Jatte is justified in demonstrating the latter's essential direction.

	Seurat, A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte
		"Seurat's Grande Jatte is one of those rare works of art that stand alone; its transcendence is instinctively recognized by everyone.
		What makes this transcendence so mysterious is that the theme of the work is not some profound emotion or momentous event, but the most banal of workaday scenes: Parisians enjoying an afternoon in a local park.
		I think it is this that makes La Grande Jatte so moving to us who live in such a disordered world: Seurat's control.

	Seurat, A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte
		What makes this transcendence so mysterious is that the theme of the work is not some profound emotion or momentous event, but the most banal of workaday scenes: Parisians enjoying an afternoon in a local park.
		Yet the impression we receive is of silence, of control, of nothing disordered.
		I think it is this that makes La Grande Jatte so moving to us who live in such a disordered world: Seurat's control.
