This vast canvas (207.5 × 308.1 cm) depicts Parisians of varied social classes leisurely enjoying a Sunday afternoon on La Grande Jatte, an island in the Seine River just west of Paris. While the subject is drawn from modern life, Seurat intended to transcend the temporal and evoke the timeless qualities of classical art, particularly the friezes of ancient Egyptian and Greek sculpture. He famously stated, “I want to make modern people, in their essential traits, move about as they do on those friezes, and place them on canvases organized by harmonies of color.”\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.homage-art-to-be.com\/blogs\/news\/a-sunday-on-la-grande-jatte\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"a-sunday-on-la-grande-jatte\" rel=\"noopener\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline; color: rgb(43, 0, 255);\"\u003eRead more about this work\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e","brand":"Georges Seurat","offers":[{"title":"Original: 207.5 cm x 308.1 cm","offer_id":53132471894334,"sku":null,"price":3400.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Small: 83 cm × 123.2 cm","offer_id":53132471927102,"sku":null,"price":544.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Medium: 124.5 cm × 184.9 cm","offer_id":53132471959870,"sku":null,"price":1224.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large: 166 cm × 246.5 cm","offer_id":53132471992638,"sku":null,"price":2176.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9138\/6686\/files\/A-SUNDAY-AFTERNOON-ON-THE-ISLAND-OF-LA-GRANDE-JATTE-1.jpg?v=1773283211"}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0974\/9138\/6686\/collections\/Georges_Seurat_1888.jpg?v=1771379863","url":"https:\/\/www.homageart2b.com\/collections\/georges-seurat.oembed","provider":"Homage Art To Be","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
