Study proposes Van Gogh's The Starry Night was painted in late July 1889, not June

A South Korean team led by Elijah Jeong-hyun Kim of Kyung Hee University proposes that Van Gogh painted The Starry Night around 22 July 1889, about a month after the long-accepted June date. Published in Scientific Reports, the study matches the painted sky to astronomical charts and cites cicada mentions in Van Gogh's letters.
