"Groep mannen drinkt na een begrafenis" (Group of men drinks after a funeral) is a lithograph by Nicolas Toussaint Charlet, a prominent French artist who was known for his depictions of everyday life in 19th-century France. The scene depicts a group of men gathered outside, likely at an inn, drinking and socializing after attending a funeral. Charlet's work is often characterized by its humor and satire, and this print is no exception, showcasing the casual nature of the men's gathering in stark contrast to the solemn occasion. The print is part of the Rijksmuseum collection, offering insight into the social customs and traditions of the early 19th century.
