The Starry Night is an oil on canvas painting by Dutch Post-Impressionist painter Vincent van Gogh. Painted in June 1889, it 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 imaginary village.
It’s a very famous art. So I decided to make a simple version of this beautiful art. I used poster color and took approximately 20 minutes to draw the whole scenario. I didn’t even add the slightest details it. But still, it looks fabulous.
The Starry Night always attracted me for the hidden message Van Gogh tried to explain through art. Rather he didn’t only tried, he explained it so beautifully that only artistic mind will get it first. So let me explain the art ❤
"An end-of-the-world cataclysm invades Van Gogh's Starry Night, one of apocalypse filled with melting aerolites and comets adrift. One has the impression that the artist has expelled his inner conflict onto a canvas. Everything here is brewed in a huge cosmic fusion. The sole exception is the village in the foreground with its architectural elements. Several months after painting Starry Night, Van Gogh wrote: "Why, I say to myself, should the spots of light in the firmament be less accessible to us than the black spots on the map of France?... Just as we take the train to go to Tarascon or Rouen, we take death to go to a star." -source internet.
Who won't love to see the cosmic drama of stars in a rural place? Surely I would be lost in the stars ❤🌟
