the cathedral square that he had rented for the purpose, the artist depicted the building under different weather conditions and at different times of day. The result was a series of canvases that represented the same subject but were totally different
in their tones of color and patterns of light and shade, giving each of the paintings the quality of a unique masterpiece.
