The waves would represent the life-giving primal force of nature, a force some call god.
The painting would be a spiritual meditation of life, death and limitlessness of the universe. One theory is the painting shows the hypersensitive state Van Gogh's mind was in at the time. The moon and stars seem to be exploding and spinning around, enhanced by the pensil pencil.Īrt historians have tried to explain the painting based on literary stories, astronomy and religion, all areas that held Vincent's interest, but there still is not a clear explanation. The large cipres on the ledt side seems to be moving, just like the sky.
Some say the painting shows the view from the institution, but the little church looks more like a Dutch church than a French one. He was obsessed with the idea to paint a night sky from memory. Although the painting features a night sky, Vincent painted it by day. Vincent painted the Starry Night while being the psychiatric institution Saint-Paul-de-Mausole in Saint Rémy in the French Provence, after suffering his second mental breakdown. The MoMA bought the painting from her in 1941, making it the first Van Gogh in a New York museum collection. One of this sells was the Starry Night to Georgette can Stolk in Rotterdam. She was determined to give Vincent the recognition he deserves, and strategically sold specific paintings to influential collectors and museums. After his death his brother Theo inherited all his work, and after his death, all work was passed down to Jo, Theo's wife. The piece is on exhibition in the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York.ĭuring his lifetime, Vincent van Gogh didn't sell much of his work.
STARRY NIGHT PRO REVIEW FULL
The wavy sky full of stars by Vincent van Gogh is one of the world's most famous paintings, painted in 1889. We've seen an other LEGO version of the Starry Night last year at the Art of the Brick exhibition: Seeing the Starry Night is also an art-piece, I'm curious to see how this set differs from the LEGO Art sets. Last Christmas, we enjoyed the 21226-1 Art Project - Create Together, with each family member building their own section. I liked the earlier LEGO Art sets, claiming the 31202-1 Disney's Mickey Mouse when that review was done, and I put the 31203-1 World Map on the kitchen wall. I've picked this set for multiple reason.
When Toby was wondering which set he should review now, I answered for him: The 21333-1 Starry Night. We've already reviewed the 71044-1 Disney Train and Station together, partly. (Quick plug for my Instagram) I do like LEGO, and I enjoy seeing Toby getting completely caught up in his passion.
My passion is making clothing and other things on the sewing machine. Normally, I don't interfere with his LEGO hobby and Rebrickable work. I'm Rienke, and together with Tobymac for over 20 years.
