City, entire, expands, famous, fan, Minecraft, painting



Hardly any computer game inspires creativity like Minecraft, which is shown here in an impressive way. A talented player just created the famous Van Gogh painting starry night in the block sandbox.

Viewers are amazed by the painstakingly designed replica of the classic painting from 1889. Starry Night is considered one of the most important works by the Dutch artist Vincent Van Gogh – and one of the most famous works of European art.

ChrisDaCow built a small town like the one on Van Gogh’s original in the Museum of Modern Art of New York. The typical swirls and, of course, the namesake stars are clearly recognizable.

A big project

Even a talented Minecraft builder doesn’t just shake Van Gogh’s opus magnum out of his sleeve. In an almost nine-minute YouTube video, ChrisDaCow provides a detailed insight into the complicated process of creating his 3D replica.
