is a large painting with dimensions of 72 x 92 cm. It was created using oil paint on canvas in the Post-Impressionist style. The artist used bold and contrasting colors to depict the interior of a café, creating an atmosphere that is both vibrant and unsettling.
Vincent Van Gogh painted The Night Café in September 1888 while he was living in Arles, France. The painting depicts the interior of the Café de la Gare, which was located at 30 Place Lamartine and run by Joseph Ginoux.
The Night Café is a genre painting that shows a scene from everyday life. The interior of the café is depicted in wildly contrasting, vivid colors. The ceiling is green, the upper walls red, and the glowing gas ceiling lamps and floor are largely yellow. The thick texture of the paint adds to the overall ugliness of the picture, as described by Van Gogh himself. The painting features five customers on the left and right, a billiard table in the middle, and the landlord in white clothes. The half-curtained doorway in the center background leads to more private quarters.
The original painting is owned by Yale University and is currently held at the Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven, Connecticut.
