Gustave Caillebotte painted Paris from unexpected, almost photographic angles, most famously in Paris Street; Rainy Day, while also using his personal fortune to buy the work of struggling friends like Monet and Renoir. His bequest of that collection to the French state shaped how the world understands Impressionism today.
