An image of the famous pointillist painting by Georges-Pierre Seurat, accompanied by a beautiful instrumental from the Dream Academy. These two magnificent works were featured alongside each other in the film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" released in 1986.

Seurat's masterpiece is currently housed in the Art Institute of Chicago, along with other master works by artists such as Paul Gauguin, Claude Monet, Vincent Van Gogh, Mary Cassatt, Grant Wood and Edward Hopper.

The Dream Academy's instrumental piece here was never released on any soundtrack, but it can be found on their compilation album "Somewhere In The Sun...Best Of The Dream Academy" imported from Japan in 2000 on the Wea International label.

  • Nice song :)

  • When I went to the Chicago Institute of Art, I stood in front of this painting the way Cameron did in the movie, thinking about this song in my head:)
