Drunken Peasant at an Inn is a 1775 ink by Jacobus Buys, a Romanticism work, depicting Drinking, held at National Gallery of Art.
You see a peasant sitting at a table, looking drunk. He's leaning on the table, with a mug in front of him. The artist used a lot of detail to show the peasant's clothing and the inn's atmosphere, which makes this work interesting because it gives a glimpse into everyday life. The peasant's facial expression and body language tell a story. The artist's attention to detail is notable. Check out the work of artist: Ploos van Amstel, Cornelis
