"Pensant-ils au Raisin? (Are They Thinking About the Grape?)" is an etching by Jacques Philippe Le Bas created between 1722 and 1783. The artwork portrays a pastoral scene, with two figures seated by a river, a flock of sheep, and a distant landscape. The composition is dominated by the two figures, who are rendered with meticulous detail. The etching is a fine example of Le Bas's skill in depicting figures and landscapes in a naturalistic style. The work is currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
