Description: Groundbreaking conservation and research discoveries about the remarkable and beloved painting Paris Street; Rainy Day are revealed this third volume in the Art Institute's digital series on the Impressionist circle. Among the many digital assets in the catalogue is a video filmed on the very street that the artist depicted; it explains how Caillebotte may have used a camera lucida to create his preparatory sketch of the streetscape and how this sketch was used in the creation of the painting. Interactive and layered high-resolution imaging, an additional five videos, and previously unpublished technical photographs unveil extensive new research on this and the other works in the Art Institute's collection. The publication features a glossary, scans of archival materials, and biographical information about historical collectors significant to the museum.
