"Rather than reducing Seurat's contribution to tthe mere elaboration of a closed system, the present study shows that the artist's importance lises in the new vision of landscapes and human beings he proposed. if divisionism, which Seurat invented, was one relatively brief step along the path that would rapidly lead painting to abstratct art, Seurat's vision masterfully suggests new possibilities in figurative art for what was to follow."- dust jacket.
