Georges Seurat - The Side Show (1888) - detail showing pointillism technique.
Instead of painting outlines and shapes with brush strokes and areas of colour, pointillism builds up the image from separate coloured dots of paint. From a distance, the dots merge and appear to be areas of shaded tones, but the colours have an extra vibrancy from the juxtaposition of contrasting dots.
Due to the limitations of printing and video displays, the true effect can only really be seen looking at an original painting.
