Imens i livet hos Paul Signac
Hele livet1895–1912
Gifts for five lotteries and support for the arts
Having prospered, Signac supports the arts generously: he sends regular cheques and between 1895 and 1912 gives works of his own for five lotteries.
1897
An apartment in Hector Guimard's Castel Béranger
In November 1897 the Signacs move into a new apartment in the Castel Béranger, built by Hector Guimard.
1897
Buying the house La Hune in Saint-Tropez
In December 1897 the Signacs acquire a house in Saint-Tropez named La Hune, where the painter has a vast studio built; he inaugurates it on August 16, 1898. In Saint-Tropez he invites his friends to stay.
1898–1899
“From Eugène Delacroix to Neo-Impressionism” appears
In 1898–1899 Signac's programmatic work “From Eugène Delacroix to Neo-Impressionism” appears, a set of rules for the artists of the new movement: any optical mixture, he argues, leads to clarity and brilliance, any material mixture to darkening and discoloration. Henri Matisse, after reading the essay, adopts the Divisionist technique in 1898.
