*** About the Starry Night: Painted during his time at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, France, after Van Gogh voluntarily admitted himself to recover from his mental illness, "Starry Night" is one of his most famous and poignant works. The painting is renowned not just for its raw visual beauty, but for its embodiment of the artist's struggle with his torment. Created from memory during the day, it conveys more the feelings within Van Gogh himself than the landscape that lay before him. The swirling, haloed stars reveal his fascination with eternity and the passage of time, contrasting sharply with the quiet, ordinary village beneath. This convulsive sky is a typical mark of Van Gogh’s unique style, characterized by bold, dramatic brush strokes—a visual technique that has thrilled audiences and critics alike for over a century. "Starry Night" is currently housed in the Museum of Modern Art in New York, having been sold several times since Van Gogh’s untimely death, and continues to enchant millions with its passionate representation of a night sky infused with so much more than light and shadow.
