Portrait of Félix Fénéon ☲ Signac ☴ Canvas
Opus 217, Against the Enamel of a Background Rhythmic with Beats and Angles, Tones, and Tints, Portrait of M. Félix Fénéon (1890) by Paul Signac depicts the French art critic Félix Fénéon standing in front of a swirling, kaleidoscope background. Fénéon and Signac met around 1884, and formed close bond in the avant-garde art scene, sharing interests in color theory, symbolism, pointillism, and the emerging neo-impressionist style. This portrait became not just an iconic portrayal of Fénéon, but a visual declaration for neo-impressionism, and a prime example of the pointillist technique developed by Signac and Georges Seurat.

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.
