"A Sunday on La Grande Jatte" Tunnel Book is a unique offering that will delight children and adults alike. Here, the image of La Grande Jatte is presented in the format of a nineteenth-century "tunnel book," which typically translated Bible stories, foreign lands, and natural disasters into accordion-like, three-dimensional views. La Grande Jatte’s extensive cast of characters and strongly perspectival composition are perfectly suited to this format.
