coucher de soleil no. 1 (also called landscape, paysage, landschap, or sunset no. 1) is an oil painting created circa 1906 by the french artist and theorist jean metzinger (1883–1956). "coucher de soleil no. 1" is a work executed in a mosaic-like divisionist style with a fauve palette. the reverberating image of the sun in metzinger's painting is an homage to the decomposition of spectral light at the core of neo-impressionist color theory.
