Description

A study of Gustave Caillebotte, one of the most engaging personalities of the impressionist movement. Prepared by an international team of scholars to accompany the major 1994-5 retrospective organized by the Reunion des Musees Nationaux/Musee d'Orsay, Paris, and The Art Institute of Chicago, this volume reproduces 89 of his paintings and 28 of his drawings and studies, many of them from little-known private collections. There are essays examining his work and his crucial role as an early patron and promoter of impressionism. A chronology, list of exhibitions, and a selected bibliography provide additional information.
