Unsigned, but referenced in 3 letters by the Dutch master Van Gogh, this iconic painting is currently at the Kröller-Müller Museum in Otterlo, Netherlands. The place depicted is in Arles, France, where he set up his easel. His gaze travelled to the artificially lit terrace of the coffee shop — along the Rue du Palais, as it dwindled into darkness. The converging composition and contrast draws us past the cafe terrace. At night.
