Starry Night Analysis | What makes van Gogh unique? (Video Essay)

[@PorteetroiteTM]

"Van Gogh's painting is the most wonderful interpretation of human sufferings" That line caught my attention the first time I heard it. I just saw this video at the Van Gogh - The Immersive Experience yesterday and came back today to listen more to your talk with subtitles in French and Dutch over and over again almost ten times at least. Thank you for this analysis of "Starry Nights", very moving and poignant.

[@michaelj.morris1979]

I am also color blind, and makes me think that what I see in my paintings are being different from what the other people see. Thanks for this video!

[@malcolmsmith8694]

This is the most beautiful, educated way to explain this great man's thought process. Well,well done. The Best.

[@TheCogito]

Wow, thank you!

[@carminaandra3964]

What a beautiful analysis! As a Creative Writing graduate, I am most impressed by the amazing wording you chose in describing his art - that, and the accent. Of course, the accent. Guess I'll be watching this on repeat now...

[@bernardpopp541]

As a fellow colorblind artist, your commentary here is incredible...yet you could add that Vincent's spirituality was fully integrated with his view of the world and his art. Thanks so much, this is a real encouragement...maybe I'll paint impressionistically hereafter!

[@Gargimishra24]

Absolutely magnificent description.It's the critical analysis of par excellence and I as a student of literature delighted to hear the accent and the voice modulation to accentuate the vividly magical painting. I would like to keep it as a reference piece in my mind by listening to it over and over again. Thank you brother

[@Dixitkushagra175]

The Van Gogh being color blind theory is one of the dumbest things I have heard in a while.

[@tylerhulsey982]

And it would make his brilliant use of color merely accidental, ultimately detracting from the uniqueness of his style. Poppycock!

[@zeeshanumar394]

No doubts Stary nights is beautiful .......so beautiful but how you explain it .is just love.

[@stefyguereschi]

Thank you for such owesome video. My favourite painting of all,by my favourite artist, Love insight

[@93mediaco41]

I wasn’t ready for your narration. Amazing way with words friend

[@Bettythebaddie]

i am shocked... this gave me chills!

[@alialderazi8271]

Great presentation thanks million. I really enjoyed your presentation

[@artinbulk6038]

Big fan of Van Gogh. Got many helpful information from your analysis. Thank you.

[@fewocious6774]

im studying for something. this video helped me a lot. thank you

[@jackgaydos9945]

Notice how fluid dynamics are displayed in the night sky

[@rider2731]

I can say that he is not color blind with certainty. The reason is because he uses color harmony in his paintings. Most notably are yellow pairing with purple, and green pairing with red.

[@luismedina8502]

Great video. There are no words to express the talent that Vincent had, color blind or not. I have not seen anyone be able to even come close to this master piece although millions have tried. We love you Vincent!

[@jaytamayo4694]

I want to first praise this Painting. It is truly captivating and unique. It just heart warning, as if it is moving... Color blind!? I find that unbelieveable after you showing other paintings with bright shining colors. There is a paint called Incandecent. And now I am making an art piece, it's not a panting, a simple tribute to frontliners with my own song composition aboove the drawing inspired by a Filipino (in English lyric) song for Christmas. I used yellow and non and light blue, blue and darker blue to make an illusion of light in the lantern.

[@sinongmakulet]

I believe the change of colors started when he was in Paris.

[@pabloo.o1912]

I love these videos, hope you return!

[@lizamcfall5729]

I am a lover for Vincent's story and his paintings 😭😭😭😭

[@minhngodang5375]

[@marianaarias2841]

Beautiful and touching video! Thanks for sharing!

[@nielsnielsen9013]

Just wonderful!

[@minecarftfans8168]

I do love it.. such a wonderful video! thanks

[@mabarcalona]

amazing, i loved a lot.. Thank you so much 🌌

[@Meme033094]

I could listen to you talk for hours

[@sparitto]

@Sun Flower Why did you have to comment this? Is it because you want attention, or is it because you want attention? You could've just commented nothing and turned sound off, captions on. so,,, why?

[@darikabarker7473]

This has made me cry. He is also my favourite. But I never learned that he was colour blind. This makes me love him even more. ✨🌟

[@akbariw1556]

What is the tittle of music?

[@benjicanones1454]

why you only have 2.2 k subs??? your vid deserves a millions views!

[@bluevisionproduction9479]

Thanks a lot. Loved the way u impart knowledge to us

[@denziljacobs9313]

I think that Vincent was not colour blind. His works was about his emotions and he used more colour than other artists at that to express them. I you know the symtoms of depression ......

[@daisrina1293]

Your voice is nice and calm

[@Hotmalecom]

Very touching video. Thank you 💗

[@mohamaddahduli1829]

[@jaynestag95]

For me , I love the colour, the energy, the atmosphere, The texture and movement. The unusual ....just memorising. ..🌍 I don't believe he was colour blind, he just loved colour.

[@yvonneho6688]

Thanks for putting this together. Wonder if the volume of background music could be softer...

[@ginger-bread_man]

I love art ... all you have to do is produce something very abstract and then express its essence very eloquently and soon enough everyone will be impressed.

[@Platina_]

What's the music called? It's beautiful

[@terrymacd2310]

Thank you for the video, I thoroughly enjoyed it and learned something new. A Starry Night has always had a haunting beauty to me.

[@TheCogito]

Thank you - I'm glad you liked it. Comments like these are the things that keep me going.

[@terrymacd2310]

The Cogito And keep going you should. Its clear that you put a lot of effort and love into your videos.

[@sparitto]

@Sun Flower You, again? Now you are hating on the art. If that's how you feel, a responsible person would stay quiet and keep their opinion in their mind.

[@navneetpegu5948]

Can anyone please tell me the name of the background music??

[@navneetpegu5948]

Jacob Matthew Montemayor hi there

[@shadowisity]

Johann Pachelbel - Canon in D Major

[@navneetpegu5948]

Thanks Barbara and shadowisity

[@galvanizedcorpse]

for me , the so called "impressionism" means that bizarre yet beautiful world I've been dreaming my whole life

[@ramboshreesh]

great stuff man ,

[@TheCogito]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@19pb30]

Whats the name of the music being played in the background?

[@Jasmin96961]

Canon by Patchelbel

[@moorch5359]

Music is fantastic.I enjoyed video, informative

[@neatpolygons8500]

beautiful video! well done

[@stacycreates24]

Can the music be quieter?

[@ginnywilliams5115]

I agree. Great video analysis, though.

[@Platina_]

I thought the music was just perfect

[@AnnabelleJARankin]

Some more paintings please!! (Evelyn would love that too, I'm sure)

[@TheCogito]

Thank you! I may be working on just that right now... (Evelyn does enjoy art galleries, even at her current age)

[@michaelj.morris1979]

I am an Artist too, and color blind as well. Always wondering what do the rest of the people see. I am a mess dressing; I like how I look , and it's OK for me; but a disaster for the others. Loved this story.

[@joseneron8023]

The starry night makes me cry.

[@aremedy4785]

Brilliant.

[@arianalaiche-oriez9733]

I have been working on Starry Nights as a diamond painting... And with each segment I come to love it more and more and after watching thus video I understand why... Why the colors used react to my eyes the way they do and I have now an idea of what he saw as he created it... Truly a very insightful and interesting video.. Thnx if you are interested in about 6 weeks check out my page for the video of my progression of Starry Nights in Diamond Painting...

[@chris_2208]

Even before hearing about Van Gogh biography, I already liked his yellow paintings. Only now I realised is because me and Van Gogh are both Daltonic

[@rishabhs7661]

You are amazing... 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼🙏🏻

[@franzart6415]

Great clip, thanks for sharing, but i think Van Gogh was not colorblind, in fact, Gauguin once adviced Van Gogh to use bright full yellow. Which would mean Gauguin was also colorblind? Looking at the expression put in the way this is painted, the way he painted stands in line with the expression of colour.

[@jennief2108]

Thank You ! Most Excellent )

[@S070-g8q]

Beautiful analysis. Thank you!

[@nikolzorzou7572]

I loved it!

[@navneetpegu5948]

Hey, I don't know who made this. But that fellow did an impeccable job in describing the work of Van Gogh. I appreciate it. But when u think about it, his life was uneasy. He never saw what he had accomplished in his work. But the fervour that u have employed to describe him, his life didn't resonate it with in his lifetime. Probably he died with a heavy and sad heart for all good things eluded him. I digressed. Great job.

[@DerKambach]

At least 10k subs over the next year mark my words

[@danielguansing]

Aren't we being to deep, analizing someone's creation? Why do we love making simple things complicated?

[@Boogalyhu]

Because they are.

[@jaynestag95]

Exactly. He painted from the heart the beauty that he saw....

[@londonsgaming3938]

When he said that he is colour blind, it just made me feel more shit at art

[@jaynestag95]

Art is individual and so nobody can be bad at it just different. Your personality will be your style. Never compare what you do with anyone else. My favourite art is by my grandson. 😊

[@cameronkrause4712]

good video-well done

[@muraleekrishnas6617]

Thanks, namasthe

[@Nopsem]

Does this make sense? why would he see a color in the world he sees different as the color of a paint?

[@Nopsem]

Still love this video though

[@Ciprian-Amarandei]

We all are 'color blind" in a way or another, we all see the world in a subjective point of view. Artists are the only ones fighting to keep they uniquie views, instead of ordinary man than lost is uniqueness as a child and became social addicted, social acceptance, money kog making machine, rejecting suffering asociated with uniqueness and embraces pain free ordinary acceptance.

[@mr.ramjangles5165]

Leave the city and get into the countryside at night and the night sky is astonishing - a point too many moderns completely miss.

Is It iconic or understanding?

please do not overuse pachebel's canon in d. if you want licence free music, pick and obscure and not distracting piano tune

As a color blind, i don't know what to believe anymore 😔

🙌🙌🙌🙏

[@garrettjohnsen]

I don’t understand paintings. I’m trying... though.

[@handebarlas6248]

I am afraid I do not agree with the assumption that van Gogh was probably colour blind. But thanks for the video.

[@julesandlachy5900]

What happened to Vincent Van Gogh as a child?

[@yourvenus2304]

Just type 'van gogh psychobiography gail saltz' here in youtube...it's a great 80min long discusion between 2 van gogh biographers and a psychiatrist dr.salts during which they discuss van gogh's childhood, life, relationships, personality and what shaped him. It's very interesting

[@lindaross755]

I'm color blind too. There is red/green and blue yellow color blindness. I'm red/ green, its like a soup but blue/yellow I can see. I think... Who knows what we are seeing.

[@aurora_artiste]

Hey, do you know that the exposure "Van Gogh : the immersive experience" in Bruxelles had broadcast this video in one of its room? Did they ask/paid you for that? Nice video, thank you :)

[@paulhayward4383]

So what I’m colour blind too and a painter

[@mrjamesgrimes]

Why are you saying Van Goff?

[@pabloo.o1912]

Although it seems van gogh wasn't really colourblind www.vangoghmuseum.nl/en/125-questions/questions-and-answers/question-52-of-125?v=1

[@MMMM-sm2rm]

Always thought it was pronounced "Go"...... I hear you saying "Guff". Interesting.

[@sumitkrips2018]

Van gogh's paintings are amazing. Everyone says that so i am saying it too.. ~Everyone

[@dutchcod1003]

maybe its me but I just see a weird painting thats looks kinda nice not all that nonsense.

[@Stettenbauer]

I am not buying that he was color blind. I would be willing to bet someone could use other artist's work and have similar results. It's just a dismissive way to shadow his brilliance.

[@vemulamadhavan2385]

I still don't get it

[@Mario-zo1uj]

Did van gogh have a sense of humor?.

[@nimitz1739]

I don’t think a lot of thats even brush, strokes, but a pallet knife.

[@divina9259]

His actual face at the end 😬🤣

[@filipposgstathopoulos]

This video was in Van Gogh :The immersive experience in Brussels

[@yofadhli]

i thot it was because of his ear

[@duartepombo551]

I feel like i myself could draw a stickman with crayons. And if people thought the autor was van gogh or picasso, they would justify its worth in millions. With senteces such as "The stick man reflects how the author felt in life: empty, simplistic, a life without content . but at the same time, the author feels like a child trying to draw its first painting, rediscovering". Whatever dude.
