Seurat, a key figure in Neo-Impressionism, is celebrated for his innovative use of color and his development of the pointillist technique. While he is well-known for paintings like "A Sunday on La Grande Jatte," his drawings, often overlooked, offer a deeper understanding of his artistic process and mastery of form."
