"Roker in bed, omringd door zijn kameraden" (Smoker in bed, surrounded by his comrades) is a watercolor drawing by Dutch artist Gesina ter Borch, dated possibly 1653. The drawing depicts a man in bed, smoking a pipe while three of his friends are seated around a table drinking and smoking. The scene is likely a satirical commentary on the habits of gentlemen of the time. Ter Borch was known for her detailed and humorous depictions of everyday life, and this drawing exemplifies her talent for capturing the nuances of human behavior. The artwork is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, Netherlands.
