Gustave Caillebotte | Paris Street Rainy Day

Who Arted: Weekly Art History for All Ages

The Impressionists are probably best known for their loose brush work, that painterly style that allows reminds us paint is not only a noun, but a verb. The Impressionists had great ideas and tremendous talents, but ideas and talent alone won’t pay the bills. When Caillebotte joined the movement, he not only learned from the other painters, he supported them. He was a good friend and engaged with them intellectually, being emotionally supportive and all that, but also financially supported a good number of them. He bought paintings from Degas, Renoir, Monet. He even paid the rent for Monet’s studio for some time.
