"Drinking Figures and Crying Children" (1634) is a genre painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Adriaen Jansz. van Ostade. Known for his depictions of peasant life, van Ostade was a prolific painter, draughtsman, and printmaker who captured the rustic and often humorous aspects of the lower classes in the 17th-century Dutch Republic. This particular work, dated to the early period of his career, showcases his skill in portraying everyday scenes with a keen eye for detail and character.

The painting illustrates a group of figures engaged in the act of drinking, a common theme in Dutch genre painting that reflects both the social practices of the time and the moralistic messages often embedded in the art of the period. The inclusion of crying children adds a layer of narrative complexity, suggesting a possible moral lesson about the consequences of intemperance or the neglect of parental responsibilities. Van Ostade's work is characterized by his use of chiaroscuro and a warm palette, which helps to create a sense of depth and atmosphere in his scenes.

"Drinking Figures and Crying Children" is significant for its representation of 17th-century Dutch social life and for its contribution to the understanding of van Ostade's artistic development. As with many of his works, this painting offers insights into the customs and concerns of its time, while also showcasing the artist's technical abilities and his sensitivity to the subtleties of human expression and interaction.

The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it has been studied by art historians interested in the genre painting of the Dutch Golden Age. It is often cited in scholarly works that discuss van Ostade's oeuvre and the broader context of genre painting in the Netherlands during the 17th century.
