Van Gogh’s painting Starry Night (1889), is one of his most iconic. Leading up to this point, Van Gogh had been suffering from mental health issues, so much so that it led to him cutting off his left ear. After this incident, in 1888 he was admitted to the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence to recover. The view that we see in St...

These flowers were in the asylum’s garden, hence why they feature in so many of his paintings created during that stage of his life. The series is influenced by ukiyo-eJapanese prints which took flowers as the central focus and used interesting...

It shows his simple furniture, using contrasting colors – although scientific research shows that the colors we see today are the result of discoloration through time. The lack of perspective was intended by the artist as...
