In this painting, Van Gogh vividly depicts the starry sky full of movement and change with exaggerated techniques. The whole picture was swallowed up by the surging blue-green torrent. The rotating, restless and curly nebula makes the night sky extremely active, and the scene divorced from reality reflects Van Gogh's restless mood and crazy illusion world.
Van Gogh's starry night is one of his most representative works. Although different people will have different understandings of this masterpiece, although no one can understand the author's real creative intention, his bold attempt to express the subjective world, his exploration of painting expression techniques and his unparalleled persistence and loyalty to art have left endless enlightenment to future generations.

Brief introduction of Van Gogh's other works:
1, potato eater
The Potato Eater is an oil painting created by Dutch post-impressionist painter Vincent Van Gogh in 1885. This painting is in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam.
In this painting, Van Gogh used rough models to represent real civilians. The painter himself said, "What I want to express is that under the light of oil lamps, potato eaters grab potatoes from their plates with the same hands that they work on the land-they make an honest living."
This painting is the work of Van Gogh when he lived in northern brabant, and it is also the painter's best work.
