Caillebotte's monumental depiction of the intersection of the rue de Moscou and rue de Saint-Pétersbourg is one of the masterpieces of urban Realism. The painting's bold perspective, cropped foreground figures, and meticulous observation of wet cobblestones and modern Haussmann architecture make it one of the defining images of 19th-century Paris.
