The Story in the Margin
"The Zone" refers to the strip of undeveloped land just outside the old fortifications of Paris, an in-between space of factories, shanties, and wasteland that fascinated Georges Seurat as a subject distinct from the fashionable boulevards painted by many of his contemporaries. This scene reflects his early interest in the marginal, unglamorous edges of the modern city, painted before he fully developed the systematic Pointillist technique of his mature Neo-Impressionist work. Seurat's zone paintings connect his art to contemporary interest in Paris's rapidly changing urban periphery.
