Did Van Gogh’s ‘Starry Night’ depict real sky from July 1889? Scientists think so
Only The Times of India reports this: no contrast yet
None of the other outlets we follow has reported this story, so there are no versions to compare. If others publish it or data appear that test it, it will move to the comparison.
In a groundbreaking study, South Korean researchers have pinpointed July 22, 1889, as a possible date for the celestial scene depicted in The Starry Night. This new timeline disputes the widely accepted June 1889 date. The study notes that the alignment of stars aligns with observations from that evening, bolstered by van Gogh's letters that reference weather conditions, suggesting the artist's keen attention to his surroundings.
