Peasants Lunching in Open Air 

"Peasants Lunching in Open Air" is an etching by the Dutch artist Esaias van de Velde, who was active in the early 17th century. This etching depicts a group of five peasants enjoying a simple meal outdoors. The group is seated around a barrel, and their attire and the surrounding buildings suggest a rural setting. The composition of the scene features a strong sense of realism. This work demonstrates van de Velde's skill in depicting everyday life with an eye for detail, characteristic of Dutch 17th-century art.
