‘The Starry Night’ was created in June 1889 and is one of Van Gogh's most iconic works. The painting depicts the nighttime view seen from the east-facing window of a mental hospital in Saint-Rémy, Provence, France. In the painting, the sky is depicted as swirling vortexes, with sparkling stars and a crescent moon emitting a dazzling glow, creating a strong sense of movement. Rolling hills, a tranquil village, and towering cypress trees form the landscape below.
