OIL PAINTING: A Young Man at His Window, 1875
Caillebotte painted some 500 oil paintings in a style often more realistic than that of his Impressionist friends. Caillebotte will illustrate himself particularly in views of Paris streets made from high balconies (A Young Man at His Window ), in scenes of working life, natural landscapes of gardens and parks, and in nautical scenes (on the Seine in Argenteuil and Yerres).
