"Twee afhangende trofeeslingers" is a drawing by Dutch Golden Age artist Caspar Netscher, completed in 1672. The work, currently housed at the Rijksmuseum, depicts two elaborate trophy swags. They are composed of various objects, including weapons, tools, and floral motifs, and demonstrate a mastery of detail typical of Netscher's draftsmanship. This drawing was likely a preparatory study for a larger composition.
