Société des Artistes Indépendants
"Starry Night", which is now in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, was first exhibited in 1889 at Paris' annual exhibition of the Société des Artistes Indépendants. It was shown together with van Gogh's "Irises", which was added by Vincent's brother, Theo, although Vincent had proposed including one of his paintings from the public gardens in Arles.
