New research has uncovered that Vincent van Gogh's famous painting 'The Starry Night' depicts intricate physical phenomena, specifically the dynamics of fluid turbulence, akin to patterns seen in the Earth's atmosphere. Researchers analyzed the painting’s brushstrokes and found them consistent with Kolmogorov’s law of turbulence, revealing van Gogh’s intuitive grasp of natural phenomena. This discovery highlights the artist's possible study of cloud movements or an innate ability to capture the sky's dynamism. Van Gogh created this masterpiece during his stay at an asylum in southern France in 1889. The findings contribute to a deeper appreciation of his work, suggesting that his artistic expression was intertwined with an understanding of complex physical laws.
