Original Painting:
Vincent van Gogh
Explanation:
Does this scene look familiar?
It is a modern recreation of the famous painting
Starry Night by
Vincent van Gogh.
Both
the image and the painting depict a tall tree on the left,
a crescent moon on the upper right,
the planet Venus
just to the right of the tree,
a foreground horizon rising from left to right,
and clouds above the horizon.
Differences include that the photograph was taken in mid-April earlier this year
in
Cascavel,
Brazil,
while the painting was composed in
Saint-Rцmy-de-Provence,
France, in 1889.
The original Starry Night is considered by many to be one of the three
most famous paintings in the world today
and a statement about the
wonders of the night sky.
Today is (roughly) the
anniversary
of the morning that
van Gogh saw the sky that he later painted in
his version of Starry Night.
