Art Institute of Chicago – "Paris Street; Rainy Day"

Paris Street, Rainy Day, Art Institute of Chicago

As you can tell, this painting by Gustave Caillebotte dominates the gallery it is housed in. What I enjoy about candid art gallery shots is that there is a bit of irony of looking at a picture (as you are) of people looking at pictures. Photos like this seem convey quite and calm. I also enjoy seeing how people are grouped and wondering what they are seeing.
