"Menselijke figuren met snavels" (Human Figures with Beaks) is a pencil drawing by Carel Adolph Lion Cachet, dated c. 1895-1900. The artwork features several humanoid figures with prominent beaks and other grotesque features, set against a background of swirling lines. The style is reminiscent of symbolism and art nouveau, characteristic of Cachet's work, and evokes a sense of the surreal and uncanny. The drawing is held in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
