‘“Le Pont et les Quais à Port-en-Bessin” of 1888[ce] (Minneapolis Institute of Arts) is typical of the melancholic mood, the air of displaced reality, and the essential harmony that characterize them* all. Seurat's method—as it was applied to his later work—was codified in a letter of 1890. It is worth quoting in full.**
