The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh Canvas Print
Van Gogh's night sky is a canvas of swirling energy. Beneath the exploding stars, the village remains a place of serene order. Linking the earth and sky is the cypress, resembling flames, a tree traditionally connected with graveyards and mourning. Yet, for Van Gogh, death was not something to fear. "Looking at the stars always makes me dream," he reflected, "Why, I ask myself, shouldn't the shining dots of the sky be as accessible as the black dots on the map of France? Just as we take the train to get to Tarascon or Rouen, we take death to reach a star."
In a letter to his brother Theo, the artist described his experience: "This morning I saw the country from my window a long time before sunrise, with nothing but the morning star, which looked very big." This morning star, or Venus, could be the large white star just left of centre in The Starry Night. The village, however, is a creation of the artist's imagination, and the church spire is reminiscent of Van Gogh's homeland, the Netherlands. The painting, like its daytime counterpart The Olive Trees, is deeply rooted in imagination and memory. Moving away from the Impressionist emphasis on truth to nature, Van Gogh embraced restless emotion and vibrant colour, making this charged work a benchmark for all future Expressionist art.

The picture was as expected when creating the order. The frame is very strong and included a hook for ease of hanging. Printing was great! It was exactly as anticipated if not better.

Very impressive product! The canvas is sturdily made. It features a saw tooth hanger on the back, making it easy to "try out" the canvas in several rooms until I found the best location. It attracts good comments from my friends. I love it! The printing is wonderful! Colors are as bright and crisp as they appeared on the website.

I bought this for our own home. It turned out beautifully, and I would recommend it to anyone who has concerns about the quality of the product. The printing turned out perfect. I did have some concerns how printing would turn out. Would the colors be accurate to the original painting's colors ? Yes. Would the sides look right? Yes. Would the bend affect the presentation? No, it's beautiful.
I took these pictures hurriedly, on a dark, rainy day, and the room is not particularly light any time. Regretfully, the photos do not do justice to the artwork.
