A Masterpiece of Impressionism

Gustave Caillebotte's The Floor Scrapers, created in 1875, is a remarkable piece of art that showcases the artist's mastery of charcoal and his unique interpretation of Impressionism. This captivating artwork depicts three workers scraping the wooden floor of a Parisian apartment, providing an authentic glimpse into the daily lives of working-class individuals during the 19th century.

A Closer Look at 'The Floor Scrapers'

Caillebotte's The Floor Scrapers is a charcoal drawing that measures 102 by 146.5 centimeters (40.2 in × 57.7 in). The painting was initially rejected by France's most prestigious art exhibition, the Salon, due to its controversial depiction of working-class people and their trade. However, this rejection only added to the artwork's allure and solidified Caillebotte's reputation as a pioneering Impressionist artist.

The Artistry of Gustave Caillebotte

Caillebotte was known for his innovative use of light and shadow, which is evident in The Floor Scrapers. The play of light on the workers' bodies and the wooden floor creates a sense of depth and realism that draws the viewer into the scene.
