Did you know this about Van Gogh’s Café Terrace at Night?
Painted in Arles, France in 1888, this famous Van Gogh painting is known for its striking yellow café against the deep blue night sky. One of the most interesting things about this painting is how Van Gogh used color to capture the feeling of nighttime. Instead of making the scene dark and muted, he filled it with vibrant blues, yellows and contrasting colors.
This painting also gives us a glimpse into Van Gogh’s fascination with painting the night and the stars, something that would become an important theme in his later work.
