Rarely offered antique high-quality lithographic print with embossed seal on thick paper after Georges Seurat's drawing "The White Horse". In 1928, Gustave Kahn published "Les Dessins de Georges Seurat (1859-1891)", a two-volume collection of Seurat's drawings, published in Paris by Bernheim-Jeune. This work is significant for showcasing Seurat's draftsmanship, a crucial aspect of his artistic practice alongside his paintings.
Uniquely presented housed within a fine example of hand carved ‘chip’ style solid oak frame, circa 1900s, with custom mount behind glass. Excellent condition.

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.
