Video: Van Gogh Shadow



Italian artist Luca Agnani has breathed new life into thirteen of Van Gogh's paintings by simply adding shadows.  The result is that the vibrant shadows come alive with motion: flickering candles, lapping waves, rising smoke, and the passage of time.  "Van Gogh rarely used shadows, and I was curious to see how his work would have looked if he did," says Agnani. "Working on the paintings of any other painter would have been easier, but this challenged me to interpret Van Gogh’s perspective."


In order, here are the paintings Agnani brought to life:
1. Fishing Boats on the Beach at Saintes-Maries
2. The Langlois Bridge at Arles
3. Farmhouse in Provence
4. The White House at Night
5. Still Life
6. Evening The Watch (after Millet)
7. View of Saintes-Maries
8. Bedroom
9. Factories at Asnieres Seen
10. The White House at Night
11. Restaurant
12. First Steps (after Millet)
13. Self-Portrait
