"Blue Roofs, Rouen" (French: "Toits bleus, Rouen") is a painting by the French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin, created during his time in Normandy in 1884. This work is part of Gauguin's early period, before his famous departure to Tahiti, and reflects his exploration of color and form influenced by the Impressionist movement, yet also hints at his later, more synthetist approach to art.

The painting depicts a view of the city of Rouen, renowned for its historic architecture and the impressive Rouen Cathedral, which has been a subject for many artists including Claude Monet. In "Blue Roofs, Rouen," Gauguin captures the urban landscape with a distinctive palette, characterized by the use of vivid blues for the rooftops, which contrast with the warmer tones of the city's buildings and the sky. The brushwork is bold and the composition eschews the finer details, focusing instead on the interplay of color and the geometric shapes formed by the houses and roofs.

This artwork is significant as it marks a period of transition in Gauguin's artistic journey. While he was influenced by the Impressionists, Gauguin was beginning to move away from their preoccupation with capturing the transient effects of light, and instead was developing a style that emphasized a more symbolic and emotional response to the subject matter. "Blue Roofs, Rouen" exemplifies Gauguin's growing interest in using color expressively, a technique that would become a hallmark of his mature work.

"Blue Roofs, Rouen" is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be a subject of study for art historians interested in the development of Post-Impressionism and Gauguin's contribution to the movement. The painting is also of interest to those studying the depiction of urban landscapes in art and the evolution of Gauguin's distinctive style that would eventually lead him to reject European civilization in search of a purer form of art and life in the South Seas.
