Chalands sur la Seine
by DUBOIS-PILLET, Albert, Oil on canvas, 46 x 33 cm
His friendship with Seurat and Signac led Dubois-Pillet to embrace a Neo-Impressionist style of painting. He adopted a pointillism more instinctive than the controlled, precise approach of Seurat. Whilst he sought a means of demonstrating radical colourist theories, Dubois-Pillet saw pointillism as a novel way to portray the effects of light and build form.
