Vincent Van Gogh’s “Café Terrace” is the first of three paintings in which he depicts a star-filled sky. Van Gogh (1853 – 1890), a post-Impressionist Master, exquisitely captures the subtleties of natural nighttime light with blues, violets, greens and an absence of black. Tormented by severe depression for most of his life, and dying a young death, Van Gogh was driven by his devotion to his art, and his quest to find a niche in the world. More than 100 years later, to commemorate his painting, the Café Terrace, renamed Café Van Gogh, is now painted in the exact tones as it appears in his masterpiece.
