Beskrivning
A powerful Post-Impressionist interior by Vincent van Gogh, capturing the unsettling atmosphere of a late-night café in Arles through clashing colours.
Painted in Arles in September 1888, The Night Café depicts the interior of the Café de la Gare. Van Gogh sought to express the terrible passions of humanity through the use of colour. He described the room as a place where one can ruin oneself, go mad, or commit a crime. The composition is dominated by blood-red walls and a ceiling of sombre green, creating a jarring contrast that pushes against the boundaries of naturalistic representation.
The perspective is steep and unsettling, drawing the eye toward the back of the room where a doorway leads into darkness. A billiard table sits in the centre, casting a long, heavy shadow across the floorboards. The gas lamps, rendered with thick, radiating brushstrokes, cast a sickly, haloed light over the few patrons slumped at tables. The proprietor, dressed in white, stands near the billiard table, observing the scene with a detached air.
Van Gogh applied paint with thick, deliberate strokes, often leaving the canvas texture visible beneath the pigment. This technique adds a physical weight to the work, mirroring the oppressive atmosphere of the environment. The choice of colours is not intended to replicate reality, but to evoke a specific emotional state. The clashing tones of red and green, paired with the yellow floor, generate a sense of unease and tension. This work remains one of the most analysed examples of the artist's ability to manipulate colour for psychological effect, moving away from the observational methods of his contemporaries toward a more subjective, expressive mode of painting.

Artist Biography
Vincent Van Gogh
Van Gogh did not start painting until he was twenty-seven. Before that he tried being an art dealer (fired), a schoolteacher (quit), a bookshop assistant (quit), and a preacher in a Belgian mining town (dismissed for excessive zeal, which in this context meant giving away his clothes and sleeping on the floor). He had a pattern of total commitment followed by total collapse.
He taught himself to draw by copying prints and working through textbooks. His brother Theo, an art dealer in Paris, sent money every month for the rest of Vincent's life. Without Theo there are no paintings. The letters between them, over 600, are one of the most complete records of any artist's thinking. Van Gogh wrote about colour theory, composition, what he ate, what he read, how much he spent on paint. He was articulate and well-read and not, despite the popular version, simply mad.
He moved to Paris in 1886 and encountered Impressionism. The palette changed immediately: from the dark browns of his Dutch period to the colours people actually associate with his work. He met Gauguin, Pissarro, Signac, Toulouse-Lautrec. He absorbed Pointillism and Japanese prints. Then he moved to Arles in the south of France, where the light was better and people were fewer.
The Arles period produced Sunflowers, The Bedroom, Starry Night Over the Rhone. The breakdown followed: the argument with Gauguin, the severed ear (he cut part of his left ear, not the whole thing), the asylum at Saint-Remy, and then Auvers-sur-Oise, where he painted seventy canvases in seventy days before dying from a gunshot wound at thirty-seven. He sold one painting during his lifetime, or possibly two. Theo died six months later.
