CAILLEBOTTE GUSTAVE: (1848-1894) French Painter. Member and patron of the Impressionists. Caillebotte was also noted for his early interest in photography as an art form. An excellent A.L.S., `G. Caillebotte´, one page, 8vo, n.p., n.d., Wednesday morning, 06h, to Claude Monet, in French. Caillebotte sends a message referring to Monet´s yacht, stating `My dear friend, your yacht will leave with the first carrier available and will leave it at the lock of Port Villez.´ Further explaining that it is the best option, saying `It is the fastest way, the most convenient and the cheapest. If there is a carrier later, you will have it this evening.´ Caillebotte adds an annotation to the left border about what goes with the yacht. A letter of good association. VG Claude Monet (1840-1926) French Impressionist Painter.
