🎨 The Floor Planers, 1875 by #Gustave_Caillebotte 🇫🇷 oil on canvas, 102 x 146.5 cm Musée d'Orsay, France 🪄About the artwork: "The Floor Planers" is one of Caillebotte’s most celebrated works, depicting laborers scraping the wooden floor of a Parisian apartment. It's a scene not of idyllic landscapes or leisurely afternoons but of manual labor, showcasing the physicality and effort involved in the task. This subject was somewhat unconventional and groundbreaking in its portrayal of urban workers as the main subjects. In this painting, Caillebotte employs a perspective that draws the viewer into the workspace of the floor planers. The composition uses strong diagonal lines created by the perspective of the floorboards, leading the viewer's eye directly to the workers engaged in their task. The use of light is masterful, highlighting the muscles and sweat of the laborers, as well as the wood shavings and tools, which add to the realism and intensity of the scene.

Instead of dealing with common themes of the period, such as beautiful landscapes or portraits of nobles, Gaile Boot has turned to an everyday and labor-oriented subject. This approach is considered a break with the artistic traditions of the time. 3 $RARE

Caillebotte's choice to depict everyday labor instead of conventional subjects like landscapes or portraits represents a bold shift from the artistic norms of his era.
