Buildings: Paris Through the Window, by Marc Chagall
Some artists change how things really look to give you a certain feeling or to help you see something in a new way.
This strange cityscape seems to come from a dream.
The artist used color in unusual ways, such as the blue-faced man, the bright yellow cat, and the multicolored sky.
