I see the MoMA decided to cut The Starry Night in pieces and put one of them up for auction in a minor auction house in Pennsylvania.

It isn't even a good (partial) copy, the brush strokes are much to 'stiff' and controlled.

 

AI notes: "You can find similar framed reproductions and options online through retailers like Amazon or Wayfair."

 

Probably a factory painting from China.

Very clunky VanGogh. I like my $22 Cezanne way better-it was 50% off day.
