There Are 2 Gustave Caillebotte Paintings at Louis Vuitton New York Right Now

"Since Louis Vuitton's temporary flagship on East 57th street in Manhattan opened in November of 2024, it's become a staple for city dwellers and visitors alike. The retail treasure trove is equipped with the latest handbags, men's and women's wear, and a bijoux monogram station that shares space with a chocolate shop from pastry chef Maxime Frédéric. There's even an expansive branded cafe and library, ideal for afternoon tea."

"From now through November 16, the store is acting as the temporary home for two paintings by the 19th-century French painter, Gustave Caillebotte. Both the Young Man At His Window and Boating Party areon loan from the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles and the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, in collaboration with the renowned Paris museum, Fondation Louis Vuitton."

"Espace Louis Vuitton New York, the exhibition space, lies at the top of the boutique and is only accessible to the public by appointment. The two pieces of art are tastefully displayed in a small room marked by muted, grey-blue walls and warm wood floors-the perfect backdrop to appreciate the color within the pieces and their magnificent golden frames. Caillebotte, who died at the age of 45, was a contemporary among greats like Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Alfred Sisley, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir."
