Starry Night Tattoo<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The international art community regards The Starry Night as Van Gogh\u2019s most famous painting, which is an oil painted picture on a canvas, dating back to its creation in June 1889. It was a portrait he had created in his asylum room of Saint-R\u00e9my-de-Provence. It depicts a magical view that was visible from his window facing east of his room. This was just prior to the sunrise of the village shown in the background. Since 1941, New York City\u2019s Museum of Modern Art has preserved and showcased this work of art. It is considered as one of the BEST of Van Gogh\u2019s work, which is why most people opt to tattoo this particular painting more often rather than his other work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nThe Painting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
Van Gogh created the painting while he was staying at the ground floor studio of the asylum. What\u2019s shocking to note is that even though he painted while downstairs, the view in the painting was from the upstairs view of his room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
![\"Van](\"https:\/\/tattooswin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/09\/painting-on-chest.jpg\")
<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nVan Gogh was forbidden to paint in his bedroom. To cope with that, he would create sketches on paper using some ink and charcoal before taking it to his art studio. The view has been depicted cleverly where all weather conditions were covered that comprised of a sunny day, the sunrise, windy and rainy days, moonrise, and even overcast days. To summarize, the mesmerizing scene was painted to combine all elements one would come across during the day time and night time. According to the 21 versions of this painting, 15 of them had cypress trees noticed past a wall far away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nComposition<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
At first glance, you can see the crescent moon along with the stars and spinning clouds that whirl alongside. It is more of an abstract, surreal painting, and in a letter to his brother, he had admitted that he illustrated exaggerations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nSince the painting is a bit hard to comprehend on sight, viewers often have to feel the need to connect the dots in the painting to understand the depth it contains. Similarly, the tattoo is regarded as a symbol flowing as if you were taking the form of a liquid, and to smoothly follow the way of life just as the painting depicts its peculiar flow. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tattoo variations for the Starry Night<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
The starry night has different versions based on the tattoo artist. A famous Starry Night tattoo idea is having it on the sleeve area as if the painting itself were a sleeve. Placing the tattoo, there is thought as an ideal place and gives off a vibe as if you were looking out the window due to the round effect on the shoulder caps. The asylum that Van Gogh was in was a monastery previously; thus, the sleeve tattoo has a mosaic window feel, creating a connection to Van Gogh\u2019s life events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The way this done goes pretty well just as the symbolism of flow, particularly choosing the circular shape, has no lines or ends, thus perfectly depicting the original feel of the painting and its way of expression, making it a preferable combination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
