Summary |
In his early twenties, Georges Seurat withdrew temporarily from painting into draftsmanship. The result of this intense three-year period of work was a large number of drawings, some preliminary sketches for later paintings and other works completed for their own sake. These were exhibited more than 40 years later at the Galerie Bernheim-Jeune in Paris and reproduced in full in this volume. |
