"Quayside, Honfleur" is a painting by French Post-Impressionist artist Georges Seurat, known for his pioneering technique of pointillism. Completed in 1886, this artwork is one of Seurat's earlier explorations into the study of light and color, which would later culminate in his most famous work, "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte." "Quayside, Honfleur" depicts the harbor of Honfleur, a picturesque town in Normandy, which was a popular subject among French Impressionist painters.

The painting is characterized by its application of small, distinct dots of color, a method Seurat developed based on the latest scientific theories about optical perception. This technique, which Seurat called "chromoluminarism," was a systematic approach to depicting light and color in painting, and it marked a significant departure from the broader brushstrokes of traditional Impressionism. In "Quayside, Honfleur," Seurat applies this method to capture the interplay of light on the water and the architecture of the harbor, creating a shimmering effect that suggests the movement and vitality of the seaside scene.

Measuring 66 x 82.5 cm, the painting is executed in oil on canvas. It is part of a series of seascapes that Seurat painted during his stay in Honfleur, where he was likely drawn by the unique quality of light and the opportunity to study the effects of the marine atmosphere on color. "Quayside, Honfleur" is noted for its serene atmosphere and harmonious composition, which contrasts with the more dynamic scenes of urban life that Seurat would later depict.

The work is held in a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art institutions around the world, contributing to the understanding of Seurat's early artistic development and the evolution of pointillism. "Quayside, Honfleur" remains an important example of Seurat's innovative approach to painting and his enduring influence on the trajectory of modern art.
