Most beautiful painting ever in my opinion.

Isn't it wonderful how we all respond to and love different art :)

I always go back and forth in my mind, in wonder, at the beauty of "View of Toledo" and that more than 275 years later, "The Starry Night" aligns so well for me. Vincent was definitely channeling El Greco!
