Vincent van Gogh was a post-Impressionist painter who captured the essence of the natural world through his brushstrokes. He was an artist who saw the world in color, and it's no wonder that he's considered one of the most renowned and respected artists in history. Van Gogh completed more than 2,100 works, consisting of oil paintings, watercolor drawings, and sketches, each one brimming with emotion, movement, and a unique view of the world.

In a letter to his brother Theo, van Gogh described the beauty and wonder of his painting "Starry Night over the Rhone". His words paint a vivid picture of the stillness of the night, the movement of the water, and the colors that seem to dance on the canvas. He wrote of the "glittering stars on the deep blue sky" and the "reflections in the water that bring a tremulous movement". Van Gogh's passion for painting and his love for the natural world are evident in every stroke of this masterpiece.
