"Three Drunken Centaurs" is a charcoal drawing created by Wilhelm Altheim in 1889. It is housed in the Städel Museum. The drawing depicts three centaurs, mythical creatures that are half human and half horse, in a humorous scene. One centaur is shown lifting a cup in the air, while another leans on a fallen barrel. The drawing is a study in composition and form, with the artist capturing the movement and energy of the centaurs. Altheim was known for his drawings and paintings depicting scenes from Greek mythology.
