Description
DeepL TranslateThe full-size MoMA stick umbrella ’Starry Night’ is a perfect gift for an art lover. The print on the inside is a detailed reproduction of the original which can be seen hanging in the Museum of Modern Art in New York.
Starry Night, drawn by Dutch painter Vincent van Gogh in June 1889, is one of the most recognisable paintings of all time. It is inspired by the night view from the painter's window in Saint-Rémy in Southern France. It is easy to see how passionately the artist applied vibrant colours with thick, fluid brushstrokes.
Don McLean’s melancholic song Vincent from 1971 pays tribute to this painting and Van Gogh himself but also recognises his struggle with life as a sad and troubled man.
You will carry this masterpiece inside the umbrella proudly over your head through the next rain shower, maybe thinking of balmy summer nights yourself.
