It presents a completely new critical interpretation of Caillebotte's broad career that highlights the singular salience of 'work', and which intersects histories and theories of visual culture, ideology, and psychoanalysis. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eWhere the recent art historical 'rediscovery' of Caillebotte offers multiple narratives of his identification with working men, this book goes beyond them towards excavating what his work was in its own terms. Born to an \u003ci\u003ehaut bourgeois\u003c\/i\u003e milieu in which he was never completely comfortable and assailed by traumatic familial bereavements, Caillebotte adopted and adapted the ideologically normative category of work for his own purposes, deconstructing its ostensibly class-determinate parameters in order to bridge the chasm of his social alienation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Samuel Raybone\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 150133994X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781501339943\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloomsbury Visual Arts\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/23\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 255\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.20w x 0.80d","brand":"Samuel Raybone","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43935197298943,"sku":"9781501339943","price":150.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_166bae61-dcf4-4743-8171-4ace85617ba3.jpg?v=1681418421","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/gustave-caillebotte-as-worker-collector-samuel-raybone-9781501339943","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
