An 1875 oil on canvas, The Yerres, Effect of Rain, by Gustave Caillebotte (1848-96) the French impressionist painter. The Caillebotte family lived by the river Yerres in northern France. Here the artist has boldly removed all possible subjects from the scene to focus on the effect of the raindrops on the water. (Eskenazi Museum of Art, Indianan, U.S.A.)
