Starry Night - Van Gogh Vincent

Starry Night on the Rhone, a masterpiece of impressionist style painted in oil on canvas by the painter Vincent Van Gogh in Arles in 1888 and kept in Paris at the Musée d'Orsay. Night opera whose starry sky and the lights of the city are reflected on the Rhone creating a romantic and almost fairytale atmosphere. The blue-colored sky is solved with wide and flat brushstrokes whose pictorial and material reliefs are clearly visible in the reproductions of art produced by Shopart. The stars illuminate the sky with green-colored rays and their random arrangement creates a sense of movement. The curved line of the horizon delimits the course of the river and cuts the picture into almost two parts. On it there are dark brushstrokes that hint at buildings and points of light with an intense yellow color that are reflected nervously on the water of the Rhone whose glitter highlights the movement of water. In the foreground a couple walking on the quay whose limit is sometimes lost in the river. Starry Night on the Rhone is considered one of the most significant works of the pictorial style of Van Gogh. Style that is faithfully returned through the reproductions of art produced by Shopart. The print on canvas of the Starry Night on the Rhone is in high resolution and thanks also to the application of the paint effect with brushstrokes with pictorial effects in relief, it assumes its character of a work of art present in the original. In addition, the painting by Van Gogh can be embellished by adding a color chosen by the customer who covers the edge of the canvas; this colored border, which acts as a false frame, facilitates insertion even in modern environments with a contemporary design. Shopart proposes the Starry Night on the Rhone panel also in a printed version on a 2 cm thick MDF wood panel and a poster version printed on thick paper for artistic reproductions of 260 gr.
