"Der Trinker" is a painting by Dutch artist Jozef Israëls (1824-1911). The painting depicts a solitary man, dressed in simple clothes and a hat, seated with a bottle in his hand. The man's face is etched with worry, and his posture is slumped. The painting's somber atmosphere and focus on the man's isolation reflect Israëls' interest in portraying the lives of ordinary people, particularly those facing hardship. The use of dark colors and loose brushstrokes adds to the painting's sense of realism and depth, reflecting Israëls' mastery of the genre of realism.
