This etching, titled "Twee mannen in een herberg, de een heft zijn glas, de ander is op tafel in slaap gevallen" (Two men in a tavern, one raises his glass, the other is asleep on the table), is a work by Willem (II) Linnig, a Dutch artist known for his genre scenes. The artwork depicts a humorous scene of two men in a tavern, one asleep on the table, likely from overindulging in alcohol, while the other raises a glass in a toast. This etching, created in 1861, is a testament to Linnig’s mastery of capturing everyday life with subtle details and a keen eye for character portrayal. It is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum.
