*** About Starry Night Over the Rhone: Created in 1888 during his time in Arles, France, "Starry Night Over the Rhone" is one of Van Gogh’s most enchanting nocturnal scenes. Differing from his later "The Starry Night," this painting features a closer view of the earthly elements, allowing for a more connected and intimate atmosphere. Van Gogh's technique of using striking color contrasts and dynamic, swirling brush strokes captures not only the vibrancy of the night sky but also the quiet of the Rhone River—reflecting the starlight in its still waters. This emotional depth is reflective of Van Gogh’s admiration for the night, which he found to be "much more alive and richly colored than the day." Currently, the painting is housed at the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, where it continues to awe visitors with its vivid colors and expressive beauty, capturing the essence of the vibrant night sky that Van Gogh so revered.
