La Grande Jatte: two years' effort and no less than 34 preparatory works went into making what appears to be the first Pointillist painting. It was turned down by the Met (!) and now hangs in the Art Institute of Chicago, where I've seen it two or three times.

An entire chapter on Bathers at Asnieres: I've had the good fortune to see it a couple of times (National Gallery, London) - it's vast - and amazing. As well as showing/discussing preparatory works, the text tells how Seurat used the current scientific knowledge of colour to achieve his colour contrast and blending effects.

Looks to be both a biography and a close examination of how his technique developed - possibly too technical for me.
