The Starry Night is one of the most famous paintings in the world. It is famous for its beautiful night sky and the way the stars seem to be shining.
The painting depicts the view from the east-facing window of his asylum room at Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, just before sunrise, with the addition of an idealized village. The painting was painted in June 1889 at Saint-Rémy-de-Provence by van Gogh while he was at the asylum. The Starry Night is one of van Gogh’s best known works and has been described as “one of the most influential artworks ever created”.
The painting is composed of intense swirling brushstrokes that convey a sense of movement through space. The Starry Night has been described as “one of Vincent Van Gogh’s most famous paintings.”
The painting has been referred to as one of van Gogh’s finest works and is often considered to be among his greatest creations. It is on display at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City. In 1973, it was stolen from the museum but recovered two years later after being cut out from its frame by thieves who left a note in its place demanding $100 million for its return.
