Whose painting is The Starry Night?

Vincent van Gogh painted The Starry Night in June 1889 while staying at the Saint-Paul-de-Mausole asylum in Saint-Remy-de-Provence, in southern France. It shows the view from his east-facing bedroom window just before sunrise, with an imaginary village and a flame-like cypress tree beneath a swirling sky. He painted it from memory during the day, as he was not allowed to paint in his bedroom. The oil painting measures about 74 by 92 centimetres and has been in the collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York since 1941. Van Gogh died just over a year later, in July 1890, aged 37.
