"Drinkende ruiter op pissend paard" (Drinking Rider on a Pissing Horse) is a humorous etching by Dutch artist Willem Cornelis van Dijk, dated November 28, 1850. This small print shows a rider on horseback, with the horse urinating, while the rider appears to be drinking from a flask. The scene is rendered in a sketchy, yet detailed style, characteristic of van Dijk's work. The etching is a satirical commentary on everyday life, with a touch of bawdiness that would have appealed to a contemporary audience.
