Gustave Caillebotte - Paintings
Gustave Caillebotte is considered an important patron and collector of Impressionists as well as an important sponsor of modern art. He was also a gifted French painter of Impressionism.
Born on August 19, 1848 in Paris.
Died on February 21, 1894 in Petit-Gennevilliers near Paris.
After receiving his law degree, Gustave Caillebotte is educated by the painter Léon Bonnat. He was lucky to come from a wealthy family, which means that during lifetime, he had never been dependent on earning his living with his art. A friend of Edgar Degas, Claude Monet and Pierre Auguste Renoir, he was a great financial help for these young artist who were often treated with hostility. He sponsored the organization of Expressionist exhibitions. Gustave Caillebotte himself painted cityscapes, landscapes and scenes of bourgeois life in the Impressionist style and participated in many exhibitions. Due to his passion for sailing sports, many regatta paintings can be found among his works. Even though his work was praised only after his death, his name had become famous in relation with his generous donation of 67 Impressionist paintings to the French state, which only accepted the exhibition provisions after many negotiations. This action alone shows Caillebotte's great significance as a supporter of the Impressionists.		 Gustave Caillebotte
