Rachmaninoff - Etudes Tableaux: which is your favorite?

Which of Rachmaninoff's Etudes Tableaux is your favorite, and which do you consider the most difficult?

[ferx.-]

I just recently learned the Op39 no5. It's a great piece and probably my favorite of the sets, although I'm not too familiar with all of his etudes. I am drawn to the famous ones: Op 33 D minor, Op 39 no 1, 3, 4, 5, 6. Just from reading through them, Op 39 no 6 seems to be the most difficult, and that seems to be an agreement amongst most pianists.

I love 33 c sharp minor, C minor, 39 Both c minors, f sharp minor, and b flat major. I am learning rn the op.39 no.1 it is very difficult imo. The rithm is complex, technically more demanding then u think. But after yeah 39 no 6 is hard as hell
