ギュスターヴ・カイユボット

Gustave Caillebotte brought wealth, ambition, and meticulous observation to Impressionism without fully embracing its aesthetic. Born into Parisian privilege in 1848, he turned to painting after the Franco-Prussian War, studying under Léon Bonnat before finding his circle among Degas, Renoir, and Monet. His realist technique—marked by sharp perspective, bold cropping, and photo-like precision—made him distinctive among the Impressionists.
