French Pointillism is an art movement that originated in the late 19th century and was pioneered by Georges Seurat. Seurat was a French Post-Impressionist painter who developed the technique of painting with tiny dots of color, known as pointillism. This technique allowed him to create vibrant and luminous works of art. Seurat's most famous work is A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, which is considered to be the pinnacle of the Pointillist movement.
