AI overview

Pointillism is a painting technique where artists apply small dots or dashes of pure color directly onto the canvas, allowing the viewer's eye to blend these dots together rather than mixing the colors on a palette. This method, exemplified in works like Seurat's "Parade de cirque," was significant because it offered a scientific approach to color and light that influenced modern art movements.
