  The most famous painting is in Chicago, with Grant Wood&#x27;s <i>American Gothic</i> and Edward Hopper&#x27;s <i>Nighthawks</i>.<p>I have seen it several times.

    <i>Un dimanche après-midi à l&#x27;Île de la Grande Jatte</i> is an impressive work. Seeing it in a book or online doesn&#x27;t do it justice.

      Particularly because, although there are smaller &quot;study&quot; versions as he worked up to it, the painting itself is <i>10 feet wide</i> and most references don&#x27;t include that context (at least not visually, they often list the numbers.)

  Went to this exhibition in London two weeks ago and can highly recommend!

    It links to it, but no the article is about his seascapes.
