Description

The work "Capuchinas" or "Nasturiums" of 1892, created by the master Impressionist Gustave Cailbotte, is a display of color, texture and composition that reveals the technical mastery of the artist, as well as his particular approach to nature and everyday environments. This painting stands out for its approach to plants, specifically the Nasturiums, which decorate the foreground with an exuberant vitality, suggesting a certain intimacy with the nature that is almost palpable.

The work is a brilliant example of the impressionist style that Cailbotte used to capture the light and atmosphere of its surroundings. The deep use of vibrant colors enters a harmonious dialogue with the organic forms of flowers, emphasizing the sensation of freshness and vitality of a scene in full nature. Loose and fluid brushstrokes characterize the surface of the paint, where the nuances of green, yellow and orange are intertwined in a dynamic game of lights and shadows, which seems to come to life of their own.

The composition of the work is articulated around density and contrasts between colors. In the foreground, the Nasturiums in full flowering dominate the scene, organized rhythmically and almost triumphally. This approach to flowers, instead of a more narrative or figurative theme, allows Cailbotte to explore the beauty and splendor of the details of everyday life, something that feels characteristic in his work.

One of the fascinating aspects of this work is the absence of human figures, a feature that the difference of many others paintings Impressionists of the time. Instead of focusing on people, Cailbotte invites the viewer to contemplate the natural environment, suggesting a more powerful connection between the observer and the floral world. Without the presence of figures, the serenity and continuity of nature are emphasized, which also evokes a sense of peace and contemplation that is reflected in the way in which the colors are and contrast.

The work is a testimony of Cailbotte's deep love for botany, an interest that was not only limited to flowers, but extended to various elements of everyday life, as seen in other of his works, which often show Urban and rural landscapes with an approach to meticulous observation. In "Nasturiums", nature becomes the protagonist and tribute to beauty that often goes unnoticed in modern life.

Cailbotte, known not only for his ability as a painter but also for his role in promoting impressionism, achieves with this work a cohesion that invites the viewer to immerse himself in the freshness of the captured moment. Through his extraordinary technique and his contemplative approach, "Capuchinas" is erected as a celebration of natural life and a reminder of beauty that resides in everyday life, something that is admired even today for his ability to invoke emotion and reflection through the observation of what surrounds us.
