Van Gogh
The Starry Night was created by Dutch artist Vincent van Gogh. The painting is of a landscape. The brushstrokes in the sky create a sense of movement. Overall, the piece uses cool colors. The addition of yellow in the night sky creates contrast within the piece. Depth is shown by overlapping objects such as the large Cypress tree that feels close to the viewer, the church, the mountains, and the night sky.
