Signac left several important works on the theory of art, among them From Eugène Delacroix to Neo-Impressionism, published in 1899; a monograph devoted to Johan Barthold Jongkind (1819–1891), published in 1927; several introductions to the catalogues of art exhibitions; and many other still unpublished writings.

Politically he was an anarchist, as were many of his friends, including Félix Fénéon and Camille Pissarro.

Famous quotes containing the word writer:

    I’m a good scholar when it comes to reading but a blotting kind of writer when you give me a pen.
    —J.M. (John Millington)

    Letters have to pass two tests before they can be classed as good: they must express the personality both of the writer and of the recipient.
    —E.M. (Edward Morgan)

    The writer who loses his self-doubt, who gives way as he grows old to a sudden euphoria, to prolixity, should stop writing immediately: the time has come for him to lay aside his pen.
    Colette [Sidonie Gabrielle Colette] (1873–1954)
