Gustave Caillebotte, an often overlooked Impressionist, was not only a painter but also a passionate horticulturist and boat builder. His gardens, like the one depicted here, were frequent subjects, reflecting his deep love for nature and his meticulous eye for capturing light and atmosphere, even earning him the nickname "the bourgeois Impressionist" due to his comfortable background and ability to support his fellow artists.
