    Night by the most vnoted Van Gogh although the reason of not denying the popularity of Starry Night‚ it’s also interesting to bring to mind that there is very little known about Vincent’s own feelings toward his work. As studies read Vincent would often discuss specific works in great detail‚ but not so in the case of Starry Night.

    Assignment 1 I have to say that the Night Café by Vincent van Gogh on page 17 is my favorite work so far. The contrast of warm and cool colors are amazing. They present the perfect equilibrium for this painting. They kind of put me in the mood to listen to some blues or jazz while gazing upon the painting.

    Vincent van Gogh is a man who lives a depressing life and who I admire the most. He is a painter who deals with various mental illnesses‚ who is shunned most of his life by others but‚ nevertheless‚ persists and continues to create works of art depicting how he views the world through his eyes.
