A propos de cet article
Our good condition books are generally good for reading but not for gifting or collecting. They could have imperfections such as creasing, fanning, inscriptions, margin notes, yellowing, staining on edge or cover or pages, bumps, scuffs, etc etc (sometimes multiple of these). It's a wide category that encompasses anything that isn't almost-new down to anything that is slightly better than poor. We would NOT recommend gifting Good books - these should be considered reading copies. Our books are dispatched from a Yorkshire former cotton mill. We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing. If you're looking for an exact edition please don't order (at least not without checking with us first, although we don't always have time to check). We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.…

In tracing Georges Seurat's theory of art and its application in his major paintings, Dr. Homer has, without question, given us the best-substantiated appraisal of that French Neo-Impressionist painter ever to appear. Every known shred of evidence relating to the scientific influences on the work of Seurat has been woven into a carefully organized, clearly presented exposition.
The author's method has been to study those scientific sources which influenced Seurat—Chevreaul, Helmholtz, Rood, and Henry—extracting appropriate quotations relating to color, or to expression and harmony in Seurat's art. Each of Seurat's great paintings is in turn tested to determine what use he made of such scientific theory and how it influenced his technique and composition.
Many of the book's observations and conclusions are new and they are likely to evoke considerable interest among art historians, those concerned with esthetics, the practicing artist, and those interested in the history of science.
