Lecture: Gustave Caillebotte, painter and patron of the Impressionists by Cécilia Auber
Introduction
A talented painter with a unique eye, Gustave Caillebotte (1848–1894) immerses us in the modern life of the late nineteenth century, capturing through his canvases a Paris in full transformation and the emergence of a leisure society.
A fellow traveller of the Impressionists, he not only enriched this movement through his works but also through his role as patron and collector.
By providing financial support to exhibitions and offering France some forty masterpieces, Gustave Caillebotte played a crucial role in introducing Impressionism into French museums.
