Seurat "Bathers" structural model

  The field of mathematics deals with numbers and logic.

Where does this a priori capacity come from?

It relies on the ability to perceive the integral properties of shapes.

This implies that a visual grammar is formed first,

and that both the plastic arts and mathematics depend upon it.

 

While Cézanne’s use of visual grammar was likely a priori, to what extent did Seurat—who had undergone academic training—employ techniques derived from his education?

Seurat "Bathers "and the study

circle-cross model

Here is a table showing the degree of stylization.

The model has reached version 6.

It features a structure in which intersections are arranged along a (line)circle.

 

As for studies of the “model,” the work has reached the stage of the eighth stage.

While Seurat is acclaimed as the inventor of Pointillism, as a visual artist he employs techniques comparable to those of Cézanne.

You keep the works you love close at hand, wanting to view them again and again.

Enthusiasts begin collecting art books.

Recently, digital imagery has become a tangible form of artwork.

Viewing them repeatedly reveals their underlying structure.

 

It is obvious that authentic art theory must be established on the visual grammar.
