5.0 out of 5 stars
best selection of charcoal drawings--landscapes and portrait, January 18, 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: The Drawings of Georges Seurat (Paperback)
For both study and pleasure these charcoal drawings, mostly landscapes and portraits, show the richness and depth of drawing that can never be equalled in his paintings. He draws from the inside out with very few outlines; rather the soft charcoal merges with the texture of the paper to build mass and volume, so that the viewer sees light and dark, rather than shape and form. The drawings are soft and strong. Beautiful. I hope this book gets back in print.

Seurat's laid paper charcoal drawings are some of the most beautiful I've seen. Relatively good reproductions.
