"Falling Stars" (also known as "Shooting Stars" or "Sterne fallen") is an 1879 watercolor painting by the Hungarian artist Mihály von Zichy. Renowned for his romantic and often erotic artistic style, Zichy created this piece during his time in Russia, where he worked as a court artist and enjoyed the patronage of the Russian aristocracy. The painting is notable for its intricate detail and emotional depth, depicting a celestial scene where human figures are intertwined with the stars in the night sky, suggesting a metaphorical connection between human fate and the cosmos.

The artwork is characterized by its dramatic use of light and shadow, with the stars illuminating the darkness and creating a sense of movement across the composition. The figures appear to be in a state of free fall, evoking feelings of surrender and the ephemeral nature of life. "Falling Stars" is often interpreted as a reflection on mortality, destiny, and the human condition, themes that are recurrent in Zichy's oeuvre.

Mihály von Zichy, born in 1827, was a prolific artist whose work spanned various genres, including historical painting, portraiture, and illustration. He is particularly remembered for his skillful draftsmanship and his ability to capture the nuances of human emotion. "Falling Stars" is considered one of his masterpieces and contributes to his legacy as an important figure in 19th-century European art. The painting is held in high regard for its aesthetic beauty and its thought-provoking content, making it a significant work within Zichy's body of art and a valuable piece for the study of romantic symbolism in painting.
