‘The Starry night is not a merely a painting of a night scene, it is a window into the soul of the artist, Vincent van Gogh. Painted in 1889, this post-impressionist work captures more than just a landscape, it records the turmoil of emotions and the power of the universe

The painting captivates the eye with its swirling night sky. The intense blue and glowing yellow swirls create the illusions of dramatic cosmic movement. Each thick, textured brushstroke, characteristic of Van Gogh, seems to infuse energy into the twinkling stars and bright crescent moon. The contrast between this energetic sky and the tranquil village below, shrouded in darkness, creates a powerful tension.

On the left, a towering dark pine tree, shaped like a flame, serves as a bridge between the silent earth and the turbulent sky. This tree conveys a sense of depth and mystery, while also symbolising Van Gogh’s personal struggle.

This painting is a timeless testament to Van Gogh ability to transform personal experience into a universal work of art. ‘The Starry Night’ continues to captivate and inspire, making it one of the most iconic and influential paintings in the history of world art.
