The Starry Night by Vincent van Gogh was painted in June, 1889. The original painting is now in 2021 at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City.

His Inpiration: “This morning I saw the countryside from my window a long time before sunrise, with nothing but the morning star, which looked very big,” wrote van Gogh to his brother Theo, describing his inspiration for one of his best-known paintings, The Starry Night (1889).

This masterpiece was painted one year before Vincent died. He was born in 1853, Netherlands, and died 1890 in France.
