"Rouen Cathedral, Sunset," by Monet


Rouen Cathedral, Sunset
Claude Monet
1892-1894

This is part of Monet's Rouen Catherdral series. This painting of the Cathedral in the sunset has many colors and you can see the form, as opposed to the Cathderal in the daylight that appears to look washed out. The colors of the sunset reflect on the various pillars of the building, which I believe is what makes the painting unique.
