This image shows Sailing Boats in St Tropez Harbor (also called Flagged Sailboats in Port) by Paul Signac. It dates to 1893. Paul Victor Jules Signac (1863 –1935) was a French Neo-Impressionist painter who, working with Georges Seurat, helped develop the Pointillist style, developing the technique in 1886, branching from Impressionism. The term "Pointillism" was coined by art critics in the late 1880s to ridicule the works of these artists. Pointillism is a technique of painting in which small, distinct dots of color are applied in patterns to form an image.
