The Eiffel Tower and Van Gogh’s ‘Starry Night’
The Eiffel Tower was built in 1889 – the same year that Van Gogh painted Starry Night, one of his most famous and recognized paintings.
The Eiffel Tower was supposed to serve as a temporary structure to the entrance of the ‘World Fair’ in Paris. But it turned out to be a permanent and loved fixture of the Paris skyline.
