This pen and ink drawing by Johannes Tavenraat, titled "Boer met een pijp, ten voeten uit" ("Peasant with a Pipe, Full-Length"), depicts a man in a traditional Dutch outfit. Created in 1842, the artwork captures the detail of the subject's clothing, including the wide-brimmed hat, long coat, and patched trousers. The man's posture is relaxed, and he stands with one hand in his pocket, the other holding a pipe, a common sight among Dutch peasants of the era. The Rijksmuseum houses this drawing as a testament to Tavenraat's interest in portraying the everyday lives of ordinary people in the Netherlands during the 19th century.
