Back to the Future Becomes a Van Gogh Painting in Stunning Fan Art
New fan art transforms the 1980s classic Back to the Future into a stunning rendition of Vincent van Gogh's «Starry Night.» The sci-fi classic directed by Robert Zemeckis arrived on the scene in 1985, starring Michael J. Fox, Christopher Lloyd, Lea Thompson, Crispin Glover, and Thomas F. Wilson. After experiencing both critical and commercial success, Back to the Future yielded two sequels, ultimately completing the trilogy in 1990 with Back to the Future Part III. In recognition of the franchise's overall impact on popular culture, the film earned itself a coveted spot in the National Film Registry as selected by the United States Library of Congress in 2007.
Van Gogh painted in the post-impressionist style, primarily spanned between 1886 and 1905, with the renowned impact of his art ultimately felt after his death. The Dutch artist struggled with lifelong depression and experienced psychotic episodes, backed by the infamous tale where the volatile artist cut off a portion of his ear after an altercation, eventually concluding with his death by suicide in 1890. However, Van Gogh's compilation of work includes over 2,000 pieces, with «Starry Night» one of the most treasured in the vast collection.
