Rouen Cathedral 1894

Claude Monet's "Rouen Cathedral" (1894) is a prime example of Impressionism and the artist's fascination with light and color. This painting depicts the iconic French cathedral at different times of day, capturing how sunlight affects its facade. Monet's brushstrokes are visible, creating a sense of movement and atmospheric depth. His use of vibrant hues, particularly the warm reds and oranges of the stonework, conveys the intensity of the light and creates a mesmerizing visual experience.
