Assuming that the human pupil is about 26 mm in diameter


Post-Impressionist Georges Seurat is famous for a painting technique known as pointillism. His paintings are made up of different-colored dots, and each dot is roughly 2 mm in diameter. When viewed from far enough away, the dots blend together and only large-scale images are seen. Assuming that the human pupil is about 2.6 mm in diameter, determine an approximate minimum distance you need to stand from one of Seurat's paintings to see the dots blended together. (Assume two dots touch, such that their center-to-center distance is equal to one diameter. Also assume light with a wavelength of 647 nm.)
