"Twee mannen repareren een ploeg" is an etching created by Philipp Jacques (I) Loutherbourg between 1708 and 1768. The artwork depicts two men working on a plow in a rural setting, likely in the Netherlands, which was Loutherbourg’s place of birth. This image, along with other etchings, is part of a series focusing on rural activities called *Les Travaux Rustiques*, indicating the popularity of pastoral themes in the Netherlands in the 18th century. The composition is framed by the landscape of fields and a small farmhouse, while the detailed portrayal of the oxen and their tools offers a glimpse into daily life in the countryside.
