The painting Paris Street, Rainy Day by Gustave Caillebotte
(1848-1894) is an icon of Impressionism.This volume presents the
work in the context of Caillebotte's innovative artistic work,
introducing him as a driving force in the establishment of
Impressionism and describing his intensive exchanges with his
fellow-artists. With its almost life-sized figures and
unconventional perspective, Paris Street, Rainy Day was presented
in 1877 at the third Impressionist exhibition and is regarded as
one of Caillebotte's principal works. The publication describes his
personal interpretation of Impressionism, which convinces with its
striking directness and bold image sections, as well as his
activities as a patron of art. Caillebotte helped to finance and
organize the Impressionist exhibitions and attempted as a collector
to establish the works in public collections in a similar manner to
that of Hugo von Tschudi with his spectacular purchases for the
Nationalgalerie.
