Which colours would you use if you, like Van Gogh, were to copy this print? In the asylum in Saint-Rémy, Van Gogh hardly ever had the chance to work with models. He came up with the idea of making paintings based on prints of works by Jean-François Millet. vangogh.nl/M0Y050wAw1F

‘That doesn’t stop me having a tremendous need for, shall I say the word — for religion — so I go outside at night to paint the stars, and I always dream a painting like that, with a group of lively figures of the pals’ Vincent van Gogh, The Starry Night (1889) MoMA The Museum of Modern Art
