Conference Oh ! Le peintre Gustave Caillebotte
Thursday 19th June 2025, 7pm to 8pm, online
This free event is open to all. The talk will be in French, level B1 and above recommended
The Alliances Françaises of Portugal, Spain, Poland, Belgium, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom, together with the Accueil de la Haye, are delighted to be joining forces once again to bring you another in a series of lectures on the essentials of French culture. Let Giulia FRANCESCHINI guide you through an online lecture on the painter Gustave Caillebotte (1848-1894).
Born into a wealthy family, Caillebotte was long known more as a patron of the Impressionists than as a painter. He painted en plein-air, but also did a lot of sketches of life in the Haussmann boulevards, giving pride of place to architecture.
One hour to discover or rediscover this painter of the second half of the 19th century.
