Wildezwijnenjacht en twee dronkaards 1873

"Wildezwijnenjacht en twee dronkaards" (Wild Boar Hunt and Two Drunks) is a pencil sketch on paper by Dutch artist George Hendrik Breitner, created in 1873. The drawing depicts a lively scene with two distinct parts. On the left side, a group of hunters are engaged in a wild boar hunt, while on the right, two men, presumably drunk, are dancing and celebrating. Breitner's loose, gestural lines convey the dynamism of the scene, while the contrasting figures highlight the chaotic nature of the event. This work provides a glimpse into Breitner's early artistic development, characterized by his interest in capturing moments of everyday life and the human experience.
