"Rouen Cathedral: Symphony in Grey and Rose" is a notable painting by the French Impressionist artist Claude Monet, part of his larger Rouen Cathedral series executed in the 1890s. This series, comprising over thirty paintings, captures the façade of the Rouen Cathedral in Normandy, France, under varying light conditions and times of day, showcasing Monet's fascination with the transient effects of light and color. "Symphony in Grey and Rose" specifically highlights Monet's adept use of color and light to evoke the intricate architectural details and the ethereal atmosphere surrounding the cathedral.

Monet's work on the Rouen Cathedral series marked a significant period in his career, where he further explored the principles of Impressionism, a movement dedicated to capturing the momentary, sensory effect of a scene - the impression objects made on the eye in a fleeting instant. By painting the same subject under different lighting conditions, Monet sought to document the changing character of the cathedral, emphasizing how light and time alter the perception of colors and shapes.

"Symphony in Grey and Rose" is distinguished by its subtle interplay of colors, with shades of grey and soft rose creating a harmonious composition that conveys the texture and grandeur of the cathedral's Gothic façade. Monet's technique of applying paint in short, thick strokes allows for an intricate depiction of the play of light and shadow, imbuing the structure with a sense of vitality and movement.

This painting, like others in the series, was executed on the spot from a rented apartment across from the cathedral, as well as being reworked in Monet's studio in Giverny to achieve the desired effect of light and atmosphere. The Rouen Cathedral series was met with critical acclaim when first exhibited in 1895, and "Symphony in Grey and Rose" exemplifies Monet's innovative approach to capturing the ephemeral nature of light and its effects on color and form. Today, the series is celebrated for its contribution to the Impressionist movement and Monet's oeuvre, with works dispersed across various prestigious museums and collections worldwide.
