The style or movement of the picture The Starry Night is using Post Impressionism.

Post Impressionism is a French art movement that followed by followed Impressionism and Neo-Impressionism in early Modernism. It also is a style that using imagine and emotion on the work. Vincent van Gogh is the one of the artist than influence in the Post Impressionism that has show great concern for expression, structure and form.

Vincent van Gogh works powerfully influenced modern Expressionism, Fauvism and early abstraction. He also works with his emotional and spiritual experience. He painted art not only how he interpreted his surroundings, but he using his sensations and feelings on his subjects. He has better technique because of impassioned in brushstroke, in symbolic and intense color, in surface tension, and in the movement and vibration of form and line.

The art with its swirling colors and lines, Starry Night, incorporates not just the color and light that is found in the earlier works of these painters, but it shows how forms and feelings also came into play. "Waves and swirls" were applied so thickly in this piece that the paint itself cast shadows. His heavy brushstrokes and vivid colors portray the night sky as crazy and chaotic and the village below as peaceful and serene.

The painting style is use two different lines to show us, the One is a long-term bend, the other one is use short-term. Use two kinds of alternating. This painting pictures are give the unimaginable feelings of us, This obviously has been divorced from the reality, only for Van Gogh's own imagination, the stars and moon in this painting that was like Van Goghs all life, It likes Blooming in the blue night sky alone. When you look at the painting, you will have strange feeling, the lines rough, the painting techniques is confusion. But the results are shocking.

The work of art say about culture from which it was created was affected by the thinking of the own artist and the experiences he went through and lifestyle of the period he lived in.

The period when this portrait was created, he was committing himself to the hospital at Saint-Paul-de-Mau sole. A monastery that was surrounded by cornfields, vineyards and olive trees were run by a former naval doctor, Dr. Theophile Peyron. During Vincents stay, the clinic and the garden become the main subjects of his paintings. And it was during that year, The Starry Night was created. The time period he created this piece was a peaceful and harmony surrounding to him. This can be seen in the picture where the night significant silentness and night time was the time for people to rest and have sleeps the town below also shows the time period this picture was created was a peaceful community without war. The tallest building in the picture indicates the church where all the people are religious.

The night sky filled with swirling clouds, stars ablaze with their own luminescence, and a bright crescent moon. Although the features was exaggerated, this is a scene we can all relate to and also that keeps one individuals feels comfortable and at ease with. The sky keep the viewers eyes moving about the painting, following the curves and creating a visual dot to dot with the stars. This visual keeps the viewer comfortable which also shows the time period was a safe and a warm home. The curling of clouds also give a sense of wind blowing like telling us its save here.

Below the rolling hills of the horizon lies a small town. There is a peaceful essence flowing from the structures. Perhaps the cool dark colour and the fiery windows spark memories of our own warm childhood filled with imagination of what exist in the night and dark starry skies. The center point of the town is the tall steeple of the church, reigning largely over the smaller buildings. This steeple cast down a sense of stability onto the town, and also creates a sense of size and seclusion, which can also be said that the period may be very important for the people in town to go church and give thanks to god for the peaceful time upon them.

The socioeconomic situation of the culture may have influenced the artwork can be seen in the picture beside the town, there are a lot of greenery which may be planted by the town people who worked as a farmer. The farmer then sell their corps to other people which can be consider as a market-seller to be sell to other town or the further town people who lived in the other areas.

To the left of the painting there is a massive dark structure that develops an even greater sense of size and isolation. The people who was rejected or not accepted by the society. And they live in darkness and do things to gain living. Nonetheless, this structure is magnificent when compared to the scale of the other objects in the painting. The curving lines mirror that of the sky and create the sensation of depth in the painting. This structure also allows the viewer to interpret what it is. From a mountain to a leafy bush, the analysis of this information is wide and full of variety.

The subject of this painting is starry night is the night sky itself. It is an imagination of a sky night by Van Gogh. It also is the starry night of the Saint-Remy. The picture consists of a crescent moon, cypress trees, mountains, a church houses and eleven stars in the sky.

The forms used in the painting starry night are movement, harmony and balance. Movements are shown thorough the strokes used by Van Gogh to show movement of starts from the left end of the painting to the centre, it also becomes the main focus of the painting. Van Gogh creates harmony by drawing many starts in the sky and repeating houses below. Balance is shown through the position of the cypress trees and the moon, the cypress tree dominates the left part of the drawing while the moon, houses and mountains dominates the right part of the drawing creates a sense of balance.

There are much content in the painting. A cypress tree appears in the painting, cypress symbolizes death but spiritual immortality, a waning moon symbolizes the ending of the moon and is fading from the surface of the earth. The church in Van Gogh starry night might be a symbol of his father as his father was a protestant minister.

The starry night was the last painting Van Gogh ever painted; he committed suicide not long after the completion of the starry night. The starry night might be van Goghs dying massage and the main reason he painted it. Van Gogh was emotionally unbalance as he was painting this can be shown trough his strong but short brush stroke.

An artist will have to emphasize in the principles of form as to create an effective of work of art. Hence, through analyze The Starry Night of Vincent Van Gogh, we clearly can see the principle of form has influenced the effectiveness of his work of art. The first of the principles of form is harmony. Harmony can be classified into few groups, but in The Starry Night, the harmony can be seen through visual linking. Vincent Van Gogh was an expressionist artist, but his concern in applying the element of unity in his painting was never forgotten. In his art - The Starry Night, the swirling brush strokes and as well as the domination of the cool colors tends to unify the surface and create the feeling that everything belongs together and let people feel that the whole painting is very harmonious. Besides that, other principle of form is variety. Variety is clearly visible in this painting by the usage of different shape sizes, color intensities, and value contrasts. For example, Vincent Van Gogh used the lively sky and quiet villages to do comparison. Thus, movement also is the principle of form. He used the sky keeps the viewer's eyes moving about the painting. The overwhelming night sky, which covers up the majority space of the background and its swirling, flowing lines, wavy motion seems to be merging at the centre point of the painting forming a spiral-like formation. This movement keeps the onlooker involved in the painting while the other factors take hold. In addition, the last principle of form is dominance. The application of dominance in The Starry Night is through the method of dominance of isolation. Vincent Van Gogh painted a massive dark structure on the left hand side of the painting there and develops an even greater sense of size and isolation. This structure is magnificent when compared to the scale of other objects in the painting.

The Starry Night is painted by one of the most famous Dutch post-impressionist artist, Vincent van Gogh. Even he had only sold only 1 of his paintings, but it didnt stop him from continuing his passion. The painting is basically, is depicting the view outside his sanitarium room window at night, although it was painted during the day. The Painting now is being permanently kept in the Museum of Modern Ari In New York City.

The painting shows the night sky filled with swirling dark clouds, with stars shining with their own brightness, with a bright crescent moon. Below the sky is the rolling hills of the horizon, which shows a little small town, with peaceful essence flowing from the structures.

Starry night actually representing Vincent himself, during the years in Arles, he had this terrible argument with is best friend Gaugin. As an act of desperations, he cut off his right ear, after this horrible time in his life had passed, the depression was back, and was sent to a psychiatric hospital where there he painted the Starry Night.

Starry Night reflects the anguish of the artist. The energetic strokes, the vibrant colors of the stars against the dark blues and blacks of the night reflect the need of a desperate man for hope in the middle of the "black night". Starry Night is a fight between a man and his anxiety. A scream for hope, light and love.

The painting shows van Gogh in just such a moment of despair, when he is struck by the memory of one of those amazing night skies. He recalls the sense that he is not alone; that there is a living, infinite, loving God who sees us and knows us by name. A God whose awesome creation reminds us, sometimes, that He has never left our side.

And so the sky swirls across the canvas full of vitality and power that speaks of His presence. The stars don't just sparkle; they explode in radiance. Looking closer, we notice that the earth itself seems to respond to the movement in the heavens, forming its own living waves in the mountains and the rolling trees beneath them. In the sleepy village, the windows of the houses glow with the same light that illuminates the universe. The church steeple in the center seems to struggle to point to God, who is so alive in this scene. But the little church is dwarfed by the cypress trees at the left, which seem to capture the joy of the inhabited creation around them by erupting in a living flame of praise.
