Vincent Van Gogh Cafe Terrace Classic Painting Postcard

Vincent van Gogh's "Café Terrace at Night" is a painting he created in 1888, depicting a night scene of a café in Arles, France. The artwork features a striking contrast between warm yellow lights and a deep blue sky, evoking a serene yet vibrant nocturnal atmosphere. The café terrace is bathed in yellow light, while the sky is a deep blue, speckled with stars. Van Gogh, with his distinctive brushwork and colour application, captures the mystery and romance of the night, demonstrating his profound understanding of light and colour contrast. The empty street adds to the sense of tranquillity, while the café's inviting light seems to beckon passersby to partake in the night's peace and warmth.
