Starry Night Over the Rhone by Van Gogh
Starry Night Over the Rhone predates its more famous sibling by nearly a year, painted in Arles in September 1888. Where the later work churns with interior urgency, this one holds a different quality — expansive, almost tender. Gas lamps from the city bank stretch luminous reflections across the river's dark surface, and above, the Great Bear constellation wheels in a sky of deep Prussian blue. Two figures walk at the water's edge. Van Gogh's brushwork here is less frenzied than in the Saint-Rémy painting: broader, more considered, the reflected light breaking into short dashes that ripple with the current.
As an archival fine art print, the depth of Van Gogh's midnight blues and the shimmer of reflected lamplight are rendered with exceptional color accuracy and sharpness — preserving the full tonal range of the original canvas.
