Starry Night in Singapore

Posted by noelbynature

If you’re familiar with the song “Starry, Starry Night” by Don McLean then you might know that the song’s actual name is Vincent, after the painter Vincent Van Gogh whose life and works the song celebrates. One of Van Gogh’s starry night paintings (yes, there is more than one), the Starry Night over the Rhone is on display at the National Museum of Singapore, as part of the highlights from the Musee d’Orsay, Paris exhibition.
