Man at His Bath Gustave Caillebotte (French, 1848–1894) 1884 Medium/Technique Oil on canvas Dimensions 144.8 x 114.3 cm (57 x 45 in.) Credit Line Museum purchase with funds by exchange from an Anonymous gift, Bequest of William A. Coolidge, Juliana Cheney Edwards Collection, and from the Charles H. Bayley Picture and Painting Fund, Mary S. and Edward J. Holmes Fund, Fanny P. Mason Fund in memory of Alice Thevin, Arthur Gordon Tompkins Fund, Gift of Mrs. Samuel Parkman Oliver—Eliza R. Oliver Fund, Sophie F. Friedman Fund, Robert M. Rosenberg Family Fund, and funds donated in honor of George T. M. Shackelford, Chair, Art of Europe, and Arthur K. Solomon Curator of Modern Art, 1996-2011 Accession Number: 2011.231 Collections: Europe Classifications: Paintings This painting presents an unusually intimate scene from everyday life at the grand scale once reserved for formal history subjects. The tin tub and discarded nightshirt at right, along with the clothing draped neatly upon the chair and the emphatically contemporary boots, make this man less nude in a classical sense than frankly naked. The muscular tension, disheveled hair, and wet footprints on the parquet indicate the physicality of an actual body at work—having just left the bath and now vigorously toweling off—rather than an idealized body undertaking an imagined heroic action. Positioned at close proximity to the viewer—this most private of moments made public—this man, back turned and head bowed, nevertheless remains decidedly separate. Provenance: By descent from the artist to the Chardeau family, Paris; 1967, sold by the Chardeau family to Bernard Lorenceau (b. 1921 - d. 1996), Paris; 1967, sold by Lorenceau to a private collection, Switzerland; 2011, sold from this private collection to the MFA.

Fruit Displayed on a Stand about 1881–82 Gustave Caillebotte, French, 1848–1894 Dimensions: 76.5 x 100.6 cm (30 1/8 x 39 5/8 in.) Medium or Technique: Oil on canvas Classification: Paintings Type: Still Life - Food Accession Number: 1979.196 Caillebotte delighted in unusual vantage points and compositions. This close-up view of fruit stacked on a market stand creates a bold pattern of repeated forms and colors, while the sensuous brushstrokes suggest the lusciousness of the fruit. A loyal and well-to-do member of the Impressionist group, Caillebotte bequeathed his extensive painting collection to the state. It became the nucleus of the Impressionist collection now in the Musée d'Orsay, Paris. Text from: www.mfa.org/collections/object/fruit-displayed-on-a-stand...
