About the piece

Painted in 1886, 'Evening, Honfleur' is a prime example of Georges Seurat’s Neo-Impressionist technique. Using thousands of tiny dots of color, Seurat captures the shimmering, atmospheric light of the Seine's mouth at dusk. The work is notably framed by the artist's own painted border, which enhances the luminous quality of the composition.
