When people mention Van Gogh’s Starry Night, two different canvases can easily be confused. In Arles in 1888 he painted a night view of the Rhône, now in the Musée d’Orsay. Stars appear alongside reflections of the city’s gas lamps in the water.

The other Starry Night is the famous composition with a swirling sky and cypress, made in Saint-Rémy in 1889 and held by MoMA. These are not two identical copies: their locations, compositions and treatment differ. Night skies also interested him in other works, so the number two does not mean he painted stars only twice.
