Street of Paris, rainy day - Gustave Caillebotte
280+ avis vérifiés
In Street of Paris, rainy day, Gustave Caillebotte immortalised an urban scene, with rain glistening off the cobblestones and passers-by hurrying along under their umbrellas. The artist constructed a rigorous perspective, guiding the eye across the wide Haussmann boulevards. The colours are restrained, playing between shades of grey and brown, reflecting the diffuse light of an overcast sky.
This painting is part of the Impressionist movement, although Caillebotte adds a touch of realism in the detail of the figures and architecture. It offers a window onto everyday life in the French capital, capturing not only the architecture but also the ephemeral, the moment when each character plays their part in the vast theatre of the city. It is an animated urban landscape, a fragment of time frozen with almost photographic precision.
