The exact time?[edit]

Isn't it a bit odd to assume the picture was painted in one minute or even one hour?

Even if van Gogh wanted to depict a particular astral constellation, it's a bit odd to presume he painted the picture in an instant. Furthermore, IMHO it's equally valid to presume van Gogh painted from memory and had no particular configuration in mind. -- Syzygy (talk) 13:48, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
