  • Ep. 47 - George Seurat's "A Sunday Afternoon on La Grande Jatte" (1884-86)

    Grab a parasol, put your monkey on a leash, and come spend Sunday in the Park with George, exploring how a canvas this monumental and as frozen as Dippin' Dots can help us better understand the world in his day, in Cameron Frye's, and in our own.
