“A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte,” by Georges Seurat (1884-1886)
Inspired by the French pointillist painter Georges Seurat’s famous painting A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, which hangs in the Art Institute of Chicago a few blocks north of the Columbia College Chicago Getz Theatre Center, Sunday in the Park with George is a story of art and love and ambition that spans two centuries.
