Verso
the back shows a representation of the Starry Night. Painting of the Dutch painter, realized in 1889 and conserved to the Museum of Modern Art of New York. A true icon of Western painting, the painting depicts a nocturnal landscape of Saint-Rémy-de-Provence, just before sunrise, where he was hospitalized as a result of his mental instability: he stayed there for twelve months, from May 1889 to May 1890. In painting, in fact, as in nature, he was able to find comfort from his imbalances.
