St. Martin's Church at Tongelre 1885

"St. Martin's Church at Tongelre" is a charcoal drawing by Vincent van Gogh, completed in 1885. Depicting a simple church building against a plain background, the piece showcases Van Gogh's early exploration of artistic techniques. The dark, almost monochrome, tones and rough strokes of the drawing give a sense of depth and texture to the rural scene. This piece, currently housed in the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, offers a glimpse into the evolution of Van Gogh's style before he embraced his signature vibrant colors.
