Gustave Caillebotte's "Paris Street; Rainy Day" (1877) is one of the defining images of the newly rebuilt, Haussmann-era Paris, depicting elegantly dressed pedestrians with umbrellas crossing a broad intersection near the Gare Saint-Lazare. Trained in a more academic tradition than many of his Impressionist colleagues, Caillebotte combined precise perspective and photographic-seeming composition with a distinctly modern, almost cinematic sense of urban space. The painting, now in the Art Institute of Chicago, is considered Caillebotte's masterpiece and one of the great images of nineteenth-century Paris.
