"Two Men in Hats and Long Coats" is a notable etching by the French artist Jacques Callot (1592–1635), who was renowned for his graphic works and contributions to the development of the printmaking technique in early 17th-century Europe. Callot's work is characterized by its dynamic compositions, keen social observations, and technical innovations in etching, which allowed for greater detail and subtlety in prints.

This particular etching is part of a larger series that depicts various figures from the margins of society during the artist's time, such as beggars, vagabonds, and soldiers. These series are often noted for their mixture of realism and caricature, reflecting both the human condition and the artist's commentary on the social issues of his day. "Two Men in Hats and Long Coats" exemplifies Callot's skill in rendering fabric and form, as well as his ability to convey character through posture and attire.

The work is emblematic of Callot's interest in the lives of ordinary people, as opposed to the more traditional focus on religious, mythological, or royal subjects. The etching showcases his mastery of the "callotage" technique, a method he developed which involved the use of a hard ground on the etching plate that could withstand the pressure of multiple printings, thus allowing for finer lines and a longer plate life.

As with many of Callot's prints, "Two Men in Hats and Long Coats" is held in high regard not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical significance, providing insight into the clothing and social dynamics of the early 17th century. The etching remains an important work for scholars studying the period's art and social history, as well as for collectors and enthusiasts of old master prints.

Jacques Callot's work, including "Two Men in Hats and Long Coats," is represented in numerous museum collections around the world, such as the British Museum in London, the Louvre in Paris, and the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. These institutions often feature his prints in exhibitions that explore the Baroque period, the history of printmaking, or the social landscape of early modern Europe.
