Darkness and light are themes that run heavily through Van Gogh's work. Darkness and lightweight reflected his wish create beauty, his feelings of inadequacy, and his desire to touch the souls of men. For instance, Starry Night draws the viewer to the painting of a sleeping village with its swirls of light as well as rich evening sky. Van Gogh began his work relying on the Dutch Masters. He was intrigued with the Masters' power to play with shadow and lightweight. He also found a connection within the painting of common events and/or people. For instance, The Potato Eaters captures several peasants sitting yourself down for a meal. The painting is dark, yet, light radiates in the faces.
