Impressionism, a historical reconstruction:

Gustave Caillebot

(1848-1894)

1894 retrospective

at Durand-Ruel

What paintings of Caillebotte were shown in 1894 at his retrospective?
1894/02/21 Gustave Caillebotte died at the age of 45. From 4*-16 June the art-dealer Durand-Ruel organised a large retrospective with 122 works (=DR1894-x; R102,p283). On this page you will find an impression of 80 of these pictures.
I will render the pictures by form, by theme and partly chronological. Note: If you double click on the first (of a cluster of) pictures and then click on full screen, you can create a slideshow. Enjoy!

Note*: Denvir writes the exposition opened the 6th of June (R5,p195).

 

 

Account:
Most of my suggestions are done by Berhaut (R102). Note: the indentification of a painting is not always certain.
See links for practical hints and abbreviations and for the subscription of the paintings.
