"The Starry Night" is a famous painting created by the artist Vincent van Gogh in June 1889. It depicts a swirling night sky filled with bright stars and a crescent moon over a quiet village. The vibrant colors and dynamic brushstrokes convey a sense of movement and emotion, characteristic of Post-Impressionism. The painting features a large cypress tree in the foreground, which reaches up towards the sky. The village below is painted in muted tones, contrasting with the vivid sky. "The Starry Night" is housed in the Museum of Modern Art in New York City and is considered one of van Gogh's most iconic works.
