Vincent van Gogh's 1887 charcoal drawing, *Torso of Venus,* is a simple yet evocative study of the human form. The artist captured the curves and contours of the classical sculpture with masterful detail. This piece is a testament to van Gogh's lifelong fascination with the human body and his ability to render form through expressive line work. The work currently resides at the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
