"Lesivrognes," also known as "The Drunks" or "The Drinkers," is a painting by the renowned Spanish Baroque artist Diego Rodríguez de Silva y Velázquez. Created around 1628-1629, this work is a significant example of Velázquez's early career and his mastery in capturing the human condition with a blend of realism and psychological depth. The painting is also referred to by its Spanish title, "Los Borrachos," which translates to "The Drunkards."

The composition of "Lesivrognes" is centered around the figure of Bacchus, the Roman god of wine, who is depicted in a classical manner, crowned with ivy and seated on a barrel. Bacchus is surrounded by a group of men who are in various states of inebriation, their expressions and postures vividly conveying the effects of alcohol. The scene is set in an ambiguous outdoor space, with a dark, undefined background that contrasts sharply with the brightly lit figures in the foreground.

Velázquez's use of chiaroscuro, the dramatic interplay of light and shadow, enhances the three-dimensionality of the figures and adds a sense of immediacy to the scene. The painting is notable for its realistic portrayal of the men, who are depicted with a level of detail and individuality that was uncommon in genre scenes of the time. This attention to detail and the naturalistic rendering of textures, such as the roughness of the men's clothing and the smoothness of the wine vessels, showcase Velázquez's technical prowess.

"Lesivrognes" is often interpreted as a commentary on the dual nature of Bacchus as both a bringer of joy and a symbol of excess. The juxtaposition of the divine and the mundane, the idealized and the real, reflects Velázquez's interest in exploring complex themes through his art. The painting is housed in the Museo del Prado in Madrid, where it continues to be a subject of study and admiration for its artistic and historical significance.
