Militair met trommel kijkend naar een hond before 1898

"Militair met trommel kijkend naar een hond" is a pen-and-ink drawing by Dutch artist Heinrich M. Krabbé, created before 1898. The humorous artwork depicts two soldiers in a barracks setting, with one holding a drum and looking down at a small dog while the other sternly addresses him. This piece exemplifies Krabbé's signature style of social commentary and satirical observation, capturing the everyday life of 19th-century Dutch society. The drawing, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a testament to Krabbé's keen eye for detail and his talent for capturing the essence of human interaction.
