A place of silence, and the hidden truth...
Either it was his intention or not, Van Gogh has always painted scenes of complete solitude. Majority of his work has hinted quietly, resembling the ultimate desire of peace and tranquil required around us. Some hidden universal truth, and above all, an understanding that we somehow need to do the same by running away into a Van Gogh dream. All the lighting, colors, and themes suggest that bright colors converging with dull backdrops remove our attention and pull us beyond the chaotic hustle and into another realm of escape. It is obvious that Van Gogh knew of these places hidden within a forgotten city, separated far from the world. Small café tables lines with a cheap cloth, set with small candles burning low in the middle of the tables. Accompanied with a few visitors, and the exception of a few small shops and the café lighting, a bright star filled sky illuminates the cobblestone streets with life. The feel of roman sic sense of wonder and gaze, this where the secrets lie and love begins. The greatest food one has ever tasted, and where wine flows like the fountains adding to this dramatic universal truth. Hidden behind feelings that Van Gogh shared, the truth of inner peace is left for us to find this small treasures like this, called The Café Terrace on the Place du Forum.
