The work of art titled Concarneau (étude), or Concarneau (study), painted in 1891, is a painting created by the French artist Paul Signac (1863-1935).
Concarneau (study) is an iconic work of the Neo-Impressionist movement, painted in oil on canvas (or panel, depending on the source). As the name suggests, it was a preparatory study for a larger composition. Signac used the Pointillism technique to explore the interaction of light and colour in the coastal town of Concarneau, Brittany, where he stayed to paint.
