EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Seurat's renowned painting, "Model from the Back" created in 1886. The original oil on panel masterpiece by Georges Pierre Seurat measures 24.5x15.5 cm and is housed in the prestigious Musee d'Orsay in Paris, France. Seurat, a prominent figure of the Neo-Impressionist movement, employed his signature pointillist technique to create this mesmerizing artwork. The composition focuses solely on the back of a nude female model, her graceful form beautifully captured through delicate brushstrokes and meticulous attention to detail. The image exudes an air of mystery as we are invited to contemplate the unseen face of this poseuse de dos (model from behind). It evokes a sense of intimacy while maintaining an element of anonymity that adds intrigue to the piece. Through his innovative use of color dots and precise application techniques, Seurat masterfully creates depth and texture within this seemingly simple subject matter. Each dot meticulously placed contributes to an overall optical effect when viewed from afar. This stunning photograph allows us to appreciate every intricate detail up close while offering a glimpse into Seurat's revolutionary artistic vision. It serves as a reminder of his lasting influence on art history and continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty.
