"The Starry Night" (1889) by Vincent Van Gogh.
This is a famous painting by Van Gogh, the post-impressionist artist. He painted this piece of art while he was in Saint-Remy's asylum (a mental institution) and it is actualy the view from his room at night.

This painting is my favourite piece of art because it is a very moving image. For me it represents loneliness and desperation but in a beatiful way. We all have felt sadness in our lives but it does not mean that it is something we have to avoid, it is a part of living. Happyness and sadness are two sides of the same coin and we have to learn to appreciate the dark moments because we learn from them, and also because "the night is darkest before dawn". After any bad moment we go through a happy time will come.
After a long time I learnt this leason, and this painting reminds me that I have to be strong, some how this piece of art brings me comfort and consolation.
