Explanation:
The painting
Starry Night
is one of the most famous icons of the night sky ever created.
The scene was painted by
Vincent van Gogh
in southern France in 1889.
The swirling style of
Starry Night appears, to many, to make the night sky
come alive.
Although
van Gogh frequently portrayed
real settings in his paintings, art historians do not agree on
precisely what stars and planets are being depicted in
Starry Night.
The style of
Starry Night
is post-impressionism, a popular painting style at the end of the nineteenth century.
The original Starry Night painting hangs in the
Museum of Modern Art in
New York City,
New York,
USA.
