The Art Institute of Chicago was founded as both a museum and school for the fine arts in 1879, a critical era in the history of Chicago as civic energies were devoted to rebuilding the metropolis that had been destroyed by the Great Fire of 1871.
More than 120 paintings, works on paper, photographs, and other ephemera come together in this major exhibition exploring the very personal interests and relationships that shaped Impressionist artist Gustave Caillebotte's world.
