1,400 words (approx. 5.6 pages) | 3 sources | 2002 United States


Paper Summary:

This paper will examine Seurat and his paintings - and, in particular, the use of colour theory and physics in his painting - in order to demonstrate how the artistic and the scientific can be complementary as opposed to mutually exclusive propositions. While it must be acknowledged that Seurat was not a "true" scientist in any respect, nonetheless, his insights into colour theory represent a pivotal moment in Western art history when science and art converged.
