Starry Night
Vincent van Gogh's painting "Starry Night" is one of the most famous depictions of the night sky. Painted in 1889 in southern France, its swirling style makes the sky seem alive. Art historians debate which specific stars and planets van Gogh might have included in his post-impressionist masterpiece. He often incorporated real settings into his work.
