Drinker Seen From Behind
Jacques Callot (French, 1592–1635) · c. 1621–25
This figure is raising his cup in one hand and holding a bottle with the other. Both the bulbous shape of the bottle and its basketlike encasement suggest that it is made of glass, which was newly introduced for the storage of wine in the 1600s.
