*** About Pointillism: Pointillism, a painting technique characterized by the application of small, distinct dots of color applied in patterns to form an image, was developed in 1886 by Georges Seurat and Paul Signac. This technique relies on the ability of the eye and mind of the viewer to blend the color spots into a fuller range of tones. Pointillism is a branch of the broader movement of Impressionism and represents a departure from the traditional methods of blending pigments on a palette. The meticulous placement of colors allows for a vibrant optical effect, which is not only mesmerizing but also scientifically rooted in how the human eye perceives light and color.
