VanGough1 Orange0 – Tarantula Nebula – Mug

£19.00

The spectacular Tarantula Nebula is rendered in rich brush strokes against a black sky, capturing the nebula’s dynamic swirling nature with stunning, expressive detail. Oil paint strokes create a rich tapestry of colour that conveys the intensity of this star-forming region.

Newly created stars shine out among gigantic cloud formations over the backdrop of deep space. A rendition of grand scale on the theatrical stage of the darkest depths of space. Brushstrokes bring out the intricate wispy trails of the nebula, capturing the stunning beauty of creation.

The rich oil paint texture invites viewers to explore the swirling patterns and to contemplate the powerful forces at play within this star-forming region of the cosmos. The combination of orange, blue and white, along with dynamic brushwork, creates a mesmerizing and evocative portrayal of one of the universe’s most active and beautiful nebulae.

Narrative behind the art:
The region resembles a burrowing tarantula’s home, lined with its silk.

In addition to young stars, Webb reveals distant background galaxies, as well as the detailed structure and composition of the nebula’s gas and dust.

At only 161,000 light-years away in the Large Magellanic Cloud galaxy, the Tarantula Nebula is the largest and brightest star-forming region in the Local Group, the galaxies nearest our Milky Way. It is home to the hottest, most massive stars known.

Within the stellar nursery clouds, points of light indicate embedded protostars, still gaining mass. While shorter wavelengths of light are absorbed or scattered by dust grains in the nebula, and therefore never reach Webb to be detected, longer mid-infrared wavelengths penetrate that dust, ultimately revealing a previously unseen cosmic environment.

Star-forming regions in our Milky Way galaxy are not producing stars at the same furious rate as the Tarantula Nebula, and have a different chemical composition. This makes the Tarantula the closest (i.e., easiest to see in detail) example of what was happening in the universe as it reached its brilliant high noon.

Care instructions: Our coloured ceramic mugs are microwave safe and tested to 100 dishwasher cycles.
