"Huisje te Laren" is a charcoal drawing by Dutch artist Simon Moulijn, created between 1904 and 1905. The artwork depicts a charming thatched-roof cottage in the village of Laren, showcasing the picturesque landscape typical of the region. Moulijn's meticulous detail and subtle use of shading convey the texture of the stone walls and the lush greenery surrounding the cottage. The drawing is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam, a testament to Moulijn's contribution to Dutch realism.
