Monet’s Rouen Cathedral captures a façade transformed by shifting light. In this Slow Art video, the Gothic stone glows with luminous blues, pinks, and golds, dissolving solid architecture into pure sensation. As the camera lingers, each textured brushstroke reveals the play of atmosphere across time, sunrise, midday, and shadow. Monet doesn’t paint the cathedral itself, but the experience of seeing it breathe with light. It’s a meditative journey into the ephemeral, where permanence meets change in every flicker of color
