	Impressionism - Biography of Gustave CAILLEBOTTE
		Gustave Caillebotte, whose personal works were forgotten until recently, was all together a recognized painter and a generous patron of the Impressionist movement.
		Caillebotte was rich and generous and will financially help throughout his lifetime his Impressionist friends by buying at high prices their works and by supporting the expenses of their exhibitions.
		Caillebotte is a very conscientious artist, whose style is a little dry, but who has the courage of great efforts and who seeks with the most virile resolution".

	About Gustave Caillebotte \| Abbeville Press
		The intriguing circumstances of Caillebotte's life as a wealthy young man in the midst of a contested avant-garde struggle, and certainly his comprehension of the complexities of Paris in his day, must lie behind and bear on all the pictures he made; but without his series of ambitious early achievements, we would hardly care.
		If Caillebotte made history in the 1870s, history remade Caillebotte in the 1970s; and then as before, it was possible to see this artist as an exemplary intersection of major forces at play--in the collisions between entrenched and new ideas, and in the vicissitudes of the market in the broadest sense.
		If Caillebotte was by birth a child of 1848, he was by this rebirth an offspring of 1968, and of the contradictory climate of intellectual upheaval that had followed on that pivotal political year.

	MyStudios- Gustave Caillebotte, Paris Street, Rainy Day
		Caillebotte's ambitious modem history painting Paris Street; Rainy Day, much like his Floor-Scrapers, shown the previous year, secured the artist critical appreciation at the Impressionist exhibition in 1877 for its "science of design and arrangement.
		It even prompted one critic to exclaim that "M. Caillebotte is an Impressionist in name only," because in comparison to many of his colleagues who were being derided for daring to exhibit sketches as finished works of art, this painting demonstrated that Caillebotte "knows how to draw and paint more seriously.
		."The fact that Caillebotte followed an academic rather than "Impressionist" method in many of the large paintings of his early career is evidenced by a group of preparatory drawings and oil sketches for Paris Street, through which the artist developed and altered his original conception for the picture.

		Caillebotte was French Impressionist painter and an early collector of Impressionist paintings.
		Caillebotte studied under Bonnat and submitted his first painting(Floor Scrapers) to the Salon in 1875 and it was promptly rejected.
		The works in which Caillebotte opened his apartment window onto the Parisian cityscape oscillate between these two tendencies: on the one hand, global acceptance of the Impressionist aesthetic in paintings dominated by sensation, a feeling for color, and a certain liveliness of handling (see cat.

		Caillebotte was known to utilize the photographs taken by his brother Martial as subjects for his paintings : by looking at Caillebotte's left eye, could we imagine a possible reference to this fact as one can almost detect in it the form of a photographic lens aperture ?

		Gustave Caillebotte and the Fashioning of Identity in Impressionist Paris by Gustave Caillebotte
		Though Caillebotte's plunging perspectives were not identical with Degas's characteristically skewed viewpoints and stacked-up spatial overlaps, the aims of the two artists were closely parallel in 1876.
		While the author is forthright in his views of the "unevenness" of Caillebotte's oeuvre, he makes a strong case for viewing what Varnedoe refers to as Caillebotte's "internal personal dynamic" as a driving force behind the artist's shifting styles and artistic innovations.

	GUSTAVE CAILLEBOTTE - URBAN IMPRESSIONIST
		Caillebotte came from a very wealthy family, was an early supporter of the Impressionists and collected many of their works.
		(Caillebotte, who had no need to sell his works, also painted male nudes.) The work seems a heavy drudgery, they are on their knees, their hands stretching before them.
		I think Caillebotte is expressing this ambivalence of modernity in an extraordinary way in the first of the two paintings mentioned: the citizens of Paris are depicted as isolated objects in an infinite space - as human equivalents to commodities in the market economy.

		Gustave Caillebotte and the Fashioning of Identity in Impressionist Par
		Gustave Caillebotte (1848—1894), a long-neglected painter associated with the French Impressionists, recently emerged as a subject of intense public interest; his paintings, which have begun to exert an unexpected fascination for postmodern audiences, have become rich sites for scholarly interpretation and debate.
		Addressing a wide range of major paintings by Caillebotte, the contributors reveal the compound ways in which the artist encoded his images and the multiple interpretations to which these images are susceptible.

		Yachting, after all, was one of the main pastimes to which Caillebotte returned when he gave up painting in later life.
		In common with the Impressionists, Caillebotte captured the everyday scenes of urban Paris, usually from a middle class viewpoint.
		The Floor Scrapers (1875), which captures the momentary play of light on the floor and on the backs of the workmen, is Impressionistic in its subject matter and in its attempt to portay atmospheric lighting conditions.

		Gustave Caillebotte selected a complex intersection near the Saint-Lazare train station for his subject, distorting the size of the buildings and the distance between them to create a wide-angle view that reflects the sweeping modernity of this capital city.
		The highly crafted surface, monumental size, geometric order, and elaborate perspective of Paris Street; Rainy Day (the artist used a gaslight to separate the foreground from the middle and distant views) are more academic than Impressionist in character.
		Caillebotte clearly intended these elements to underscore the power of painting to capture the momentary quality of everyday life.
