Paul Signac, a founding figure of Neo-Impressionism alongside Georges Seurat, spent much of his career painting harbors and coastlines using the Pointillist technique of small, distinct dots of pure color that blend optically in the viewer's eye. "Evening" reflects his lifelong fascination with the changing light of dusk over water, a subject he returned to throughout his career as he traveled the coasts of France aboard his sailboat. After Seurat's death in 1891, Signac became Neo-Impressionism's leading champion, refining its scientific approach to color into a more lyrical, decorative style.
