Bathers at Asnières ☷ Seurat ☱ Canvas
Bathers at Asnières (1884, Une Baignade, Asnières) by Georges Seurat depicts bathers in the Seine at Asnières/ Courbevoie, about four miles from the center of Paris. Opposite is the island of la Grande Jatte, the east tip of which is shown as a slope and trees on the right. The Asnières railway bridge and the industrial buildings of Clichy are in the background. Seurat depicts the saturating heat and brightness of a hot summer day on the riverbank with highly reflective water, softened edges of the trees, and by washing out the color from the bridges and factories in the distance. Many artists painted this area of the Seine during the 1880s - Seurat himself would return to it for A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte.

Stretched canvas art is created from a giclée print on canvas (instead of paper), and like a traditional painting, the canvas is hand-stretched over a solid wood frame. It can be mounted in a float frame, or displayed on its own. The sides of the canvas are finished in a solid color that complements the artwork, creating a modern masterpiece ready to hang on your wall, without a frame.
