I too find myself needing a moment to absorb a great piece of art. In this case, my uncle Eddie gazes at a Monet. We both admired Monet's choice to not have a level horizon. As photographers, the need for a level horizon is drilled into our heads and the deliberate slant is really refreshing.
Unless of course, the ocean then falls off of the left side of the painting. That would be terrible indeed.
