Paul Signac, a leading figure of the Neo-Impressionist movement, is known for his use of Pointillism, a technique that involves applying small dots of color to the canvas. This artwork, "Boats", exemplifies this technique. The composition, featuring several sailboats against a light-colored background, showcases how Signac used contrasting colors to create a sense of depth and texture, blending together to form a vivid seascape. This style, often termed "Divisionism," was revolutionary in its departure from traditional brushwork, pushing the boundaries of color and light in art.
