Neo-impressionism is a term coined by French art critic Félix Fénéon in 1886 to describe an art movement founded by Georges Seurat. Seurat’s greatest masterpiece A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte marked the beginning of this movement when it first made its appearance at an exhibition of the Société des Artistes Indépendants (Salon des Indépendants) in Paris. Around this time the peak of France’s modern era emerged and many painters were in search of new methods.
