Panorama XXL "Monet's Cathedral, the optimism of modernity"

This unprecedented panorama by Yadegar Asisi takes the public to Rouen at the time of the Impressionism movement, and invites them to discover the famous cathedral so dear to Claude Monet, the father of the world's largest artistic movements.

At the foot of the majestic representation of the Rouen cathedral, visitors will discover the square with its tram, shops and architecture. Each element of this immense fresco is a journey back in time to the 1890s. Onlookers mingle with the greatest artists and the locals of the time. The play of light and music gives life to the hustle and bustle of the square.

The inspiration for this unique panorama comes from Claude Monet's series of Rouen cathedral paintings that were realized between 1892 and 1894 from his studio situated opposite the cathedral. This series is considered to be a major factor in the advance of the Impressionist movement. It represents this passage between the past and the present, shadow and light, classicism and modernism. This powerful work is the greatest contemporary work dedicated and attributed to Impressionism and to all its great precursor masters, in breaking with their time and who have forever marked the history of art.

Yadegar Asisi created this panorama of Monet's Cathedral in the Impressionist style as an oil painting. The canvas was then digitized and printed in its 360 ° format on an area of almost 3500 m². Unlike the artist's other world-renowned panoramas, there was not a re-enactment photoshoot, and the architectural details of the historic photographs were only used as plans and inspiration for the creation.
