1886
Oil on canvas
Private collection.

Signac painted this view of the jetty of La Félicité, a well-known steamer used for pleasure trips on the Seine, dot by separate dot. He was a past master at this way of painting with unmixed, contrasting colours. Van Gogh admired his skill and tried to emulate it. Signac’s modern subjects also appealed to him. Van Gogh may well have seen this painting in 1887 at the Salon des Indépendants (a major exhibition held in Paris each year).

Asnières was situated on the river Seine just outside Paris. Well-to-do Parisians went there on day-trips but it was also an industrial development area. The river-side gas holder on the right of the picture is a reference to this.

The fine art subject is rebuilt stroke by stroke in oil, giving the finished canvas the depth expected of post-impressionist oil painting wall decor.
