Church Tower at Domburg by Piet Mondrian Postcard

Piet Mondrian's Church Tower at Domburg (1911) is a significant painting that reflects his early approach to abstraction. The artwork captures a scene of a church tower in the coastal town of Domburg, Netherlands, where Mondrian spent time in his youth. The composition is dominated by a vibrant yet simplified colour palette, with the stark contrast of geometric shapes, showcasing Mondrian's early exploration of form and colour before fully embracing his later, more famous abstract style. The painting marks an important moment in the artist's development, as he begins to move away from figurative representation toward abstraction.
