"Twee hoofden van Oosterlingen" (Two Heads of Easterners) is a 17th-century drawing by Dutch artist Jan Moninckx. The artwork features detailed, expressive portraits of two men, likely depicting figures from the Ottoman Empire. Their distinctive clothing, including a feathered cap and a turban, suggests their foreign origin, highlighting Moninckx's interest in capturing the diverse cultures he encountered. The drawing is executed in pen and ink, creating a sense of depth and texture in the figures' faces, beards, and clothing.
