"Der Trinker (Bildnis des Wirts Rauecker)" is a notable painting by the German realist artist Wilhelm Leibl, created in 1893. Leibl, renowned for his meticulous attention to detail and his commitment to capturing the essence of his subjects, was a prominent figure in the realist movement in Germany. His works often depicted rural life and ordinary people with an unflinching honesty and a profound sense of empathy.

This particular painting, "Der Trinker," which translates to "The Drinker," is a striking portrait of a man identified as Wirts Rauecker. The subject is portrayed in a moment of introspection, holding a glass, which suggests his engagement in drinking. Leibl's skillful use of light and shadow, combined with his precise brushwork, brings out the textures of the man's skin, the fabric of his clothing, and the reflective surface of the glass. The painting is a testament to Leibl's ability to convey the psychological depth and humanity of his subjects.

Leibl's approach to realism was heavily influenced by the works of Gustave Courbet and the Barbizon School, and he was known for his practice of painting directly from life. This method allowed him to capture the subtleties of human expression and the nuances of everyday life with remarkable fidelity. "Der Trinker" exemplifies this approach, presenting a raw and unidealized image that invites viewers to contemplate the inner life of the subject.

The painting is housed in the Neue Pinakothek in Munich, Germany, where it continues to be admired for its technical excellence and emotional resonance. "Der Trinker" remains an important work within Leibl's oeuvre, reflecting his dedication to realism and his profound ability to depict the human condition.
