Vincent van Gogh's The Starry Night (1889) 6 Cm Round Badge

A classic artwork that has passed into the public domain and makes wonderful gifts and other products. Van Gogh once wrote: "It often seems to me that night is still more richly coloured than the day; having hues of the most intense violets, blues and greens. If only you pay attention to it you will see that certain stars are lemon-yellow, others pink or a green, blue and forget-me-not brilliance. And without my expatiating on this theme it is obvious that putting little white dots on the blue-black is not enough to paint a starry sky." This and his "Starry Night Over the Rhone" explore this idea, and stand as two of the most famous nighttime scenes in art. Vincent van Gogh (1853–1890) was probably the most famous Post-Impressionist painter. Never enjoying a great level of success or recognition during his life, his posthumous stature has grown enormously, and he has arguably influenced almost every artist since. All of our products are made with large scale images that have been carefully edited to provide the best resolution, colour and detail possible.
