Description

Georges Seurat s Eiffel Tower (1889) is a captivating example of his pointillist technique, which he pioneered and refined in the 1880s. This painting offers an unusual interpretation of one of France s most iconic structures, which was still a recent marvel when Seurat painted it. Rather than capturing the Eiffel Tower as a literal monument, Seurat uses his meticulous, dot-based approach to create a stylized image that reflects the structure s innovation and elegance.
