SEURAT

Beginning with Impressionism, all painting has become anti-scientific even Seurat was [anti-scientific]. What interested me was introducing the precise and exact aspects of [modem] science, which had not often...

A line can represent the edge of something. In the case of a work by Georges Seurat, the edge of a set of dots represents a line. A line can be used to separate one area from another. Line is used to communicate information in many ways. We write our names or a note to a friend using line. Artists draw with pencil, pen, and paint, using lines to form objects and express ideas. Line does not exist in nature it is an invention, an abstraction developed to represent what we see and what we want to communicate. The eye interprets line when it is actually the edge of the viewed object.

Pointillism Method of oil painting with numerous small dots of two or more pure colours which, at a distance, produce the effect of mixed colour. Technique pioneered by the French Impressionist painter Georges Seurat.

The atoms are very tiny and can be seen only with a powerful magnifying instrument. You may have encountered the same concept in your life when you looked at a beach from a distance. The sand looks uniform—you can t see the separate particles. As you get close, however, the individual grains of sand become apparent. Observe the Impressionist painting by Seurat shown in the photo on the following page. From a distance the scene looks normal. Only when you stand very close to the painting do you see that it is composed of tiny dots of paint. 

The painting "Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte" by Georges Seurat illustrates the Impressionist style. 

The electrochemical behaviour of metal carbonyls in aprotic solvents was investigated by Pickett et al (1) and Seurat et al (2). The electrochemical oxidation of several metal carbonyls was also described in a mixture of the high Lewis acid, room temperature molten salt, composed of aluminium chloride and ethylpyridinium bromide (2 1 molar ratio) and benzene (50% v/v) (3). In these studies Cr(CO)6 was found to be reversibly oxidised, at a potential of 1.53 V vs SCE, to the seventeen electron cation Cr(CO)6" which is stable on the time scale of many seconds. The cyclic voltammogram of C r(CO)6 shows a second oxidation peak at a potential of 2.06 V for further oxidation of the cation Cr(CO)5 and the proposed mechanism is (1) ...
