Starry Night

Starry Night was a painting by Vincent van Gogh which the Doctor had "borrowed" by his fourth incarnation. He kept it in the TARDIS, next to another van Gogh, Poppy Flowers. Leela painted over it. (AUDIO: The Abandoned)

The painting comprised of "swirling blues and yellow stars forming a night sky". (PROSE: She Came From Another World!)

When he met van Gogh, the Eleventh Doctor mentioned to Vincent that the "dark night" was "very starry". (TV: The Pandorica Opens)

Vincent and the Doctor features a scene in which the Eleventh Doctor, Amy Pond and Vincent together imagine the night sky as Vincent sees it, i.e., as depicted in Starry Night.

Later, The Pandorica Opens introduces another van Gogh painting, The Pandorica Opens, in the style of Starry Night, but with an exploding TARDIS.
