"The Regata" is a painting by Belgian neo-impressionist painter Théo van Rysselberghe (1862–1926). Created during the height of his involvement with the pointillist technique, this work exemplifies van Rysselberghe's fascination with color theory and the divisionist method of painting, which involves the application of pure color in dots and dashes that blend in the viewer's eye to create luminous and vibrant scenes.

The painting captures the dynamic and colorful atmosphere of a regatta, a series of boat races that were popular social and sporting events among the European elite at the turn of the 20th century. Van Rysselberghe's composition likely reflects the leisure activities of the bourgeoisie, a subject that was frequently depicted by artists of the Neo-Impressionist movement.

In "The Regata," van Rysselberghe employs a palette of vivid blues, whites, and reds to convey the movement of water and the festive mood of the event. The artist's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to the reflective qualities of water, demonstrate his skill in capturing the ephemeral qualities of a scene. The painting's precise brushstrokes and the rhythmic patterns created by the application of color are characteristic of van Rysselberghe's mature style.

As a member of Les XX (Les Vingt), a group of avant-garde artists in Belgium, van Rysselberghe was at the forefront of introducing Neo-Impressionism to a wider audience. "The Regata" not only reflects the artist's technical prowess but also his engagement with contemporary artistic movements and the social milieu of his time.

The painting is significant in the oeuvre of van Rysselberghe as it marks his commitment to the Neo-Impressionist movement and his exploration of color theory, which would influence his later works. "The Regata" is often celebrated for its contribution to the development of modernist painting in Belgium and for its representation of the leisurely pursuits of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
