This landmark exhibition reintroduces Gustave Caillebotte as a singular voice within Impressionism—an artist who turned his gaze inward, capturing the intimate world of his family, friends, and everyday encounters. Rather than focusing on the fleeting pleasures of modern life, Caillebotte portrayed the people and passions that shaped his world, from the quiet dignity of workers to the camaraderie of fellow sportsmen.

Featuring more than 120 works—including paintings, drawings, photographs, and rare loans—this exhibition offers a revealing portrait of Caillebotte as a painter of private moments, personal relationships, and a uniquely modern masculinity.

Hear from Megan True, curatorial assistant, for an exclusive look into "Gustave Caillebotte: Painting His World."
