CAILLEBOTTE This month, Sandy Tours invites you to immerse yourself in the life of the famous painter Gustave Caillebotte. Gustave Caillebotte (1848-1894), was a French painter, patron and collector. Although associated with the Impressionism movement, his style oscillates between realism and impressionism, which makes him unique.  Unlike some of his contemporaries like Monet or Renoir, he used precise lines and very structured geometric compositions. Caillebotte was also passionate about art and a great support for his impressionist friends. | He purchased many works by Monet, Renoir, Degas, and many others, allowing these artists to make a living from their art. After his death, he bequeathed a large part of his collection to the French state, helping to popularize the Impressionism movement.  Some of his works are visible at the Musée d'Orsay, as well as in his preserved residence in Yerres. Sandy Tours offers to make you discover the painter's universe during a day in a private minivan. |
