Description
The Rouen Cathedral series, painted in the 1890s, consists of over thirty paintings capturing the façade of the cathedral at different times of day and year, emphasizing how light changes the appearance of the subject. Monet painted these works in Rouen, Normandy, and later reworked them in his studio. The series was well-received, with notable artists like Camille Pissarro and Paul Cézanne praising it. Monet used thick, textured paint to convey the dynamic interplay of light and color. The series was later displayed in various galleries, including the Musée d’Orsay and the National Gallery in London.
