A Sunday on La Grande Jatte
Georges Seurat (1884–1886)
This revolutionary monument of Neo-Impressionism forever changed modern art by fusing classical frieze-like grandeur with nineteenth-century scientific color theory. Rejecting traditional palette mixing, the entire canvas is constructed from thousands of precision pointillist dots of pure, unblended pigment. Viewed from a distance, the human retina performs optical mixing, causing complementary hues to vibrate with a luminosity no brush-mixed paint could achieve, right out to the hand-painted pointillist border framing the scene.
Heavyweight natural cotton canvas printed with A Sunday on La Grande Jatte on one side and its museum wall plaque on the other. Built with reinforced straps for books, daily errands, or a trip to the gallery.

Why We Print on Both Sides
When you visit Art Institute of Chicago in Chicago, half the magic of standing in front of A Sunday on La Grande Jatte (1884–1886) is leaning in to read the wall label next to the frame. We wanted our pieces to capture that same experience. One side shows Georges Seurat’s work in crisp detail, and the other side carries its museum wall plaque so the history behind the canvas is never lost.
Collector Reviews (5.0 / 5 • 23 Reviews)
“The color fidelity on A Sunday on La Grande Jatte is remarkable, and having the curatorial wall plaque from Art Institute of Chicago printed on the reverse makes it a genuine conversation piece.”
“Bought this for an art history colleague who adores Georges Seurat. The print is crisp on both sides and the historical notes on the reverse are wonderfully researched.”
