Painted in 1892 near his country estate in Petit-Gennevilliers, Sailboats on the Seine at Argenteuil celebrates Gustave Caillebotte’s passionate life as both a master painter and an avid yacht designer and racer. Argenteuil was the epicenter of French river boating culture and a favorite painting ground for Impressionist masters like Claude Monet and Auguste Renoir. In this mature work, Caillebotte combined his structural understanding of boat hulls and rigging with lush, expressive Impressionist brushwork, capturing the play of bright sunlight on canvas sails, flickering river reflections, and lush foliage lining the banks of the Seine.
