Description

Gustave Caillebotte Painting Men is a richly illustrated volume that explores the complex portrait of Caillebotte, masculinity, and identity in late nineteenth-century France. The book features a collection of Caillebotte's paintings, drawings, and photographs, including some of his most famous works that depict men in various settings. The catalogue includes historically grounded thematic essays by curators and leading scholars, which shed light on Caillebotte's social network and pose questions of identity, leaving space for ambiguous and fluid expressions of gender and masculinity. By examining Caillebotte's life and work, this volume offers a nuanced understanding of the artist's identity and its relevance to the late nineteenth-century French world. Published to accompany a major international exhibition, Gustave Caillebotte Painting Men provides a unique insight into the life and work of one of France's most important Impressionist painters.
