"Huizen te Dinant" is a pencil drawing by Willem Roelofs, a Dutch artist known for his landscapes. Created between 1846 and 1851, the drawing depicts a simple scene of houses nestled amidst a rocky hillside. The delicate lines and subtle shading create a sense of depth and atmosphere, capturing the essence of the picturesque Belgian town of Dinant. This drawing, now in the Rijksmuseum, offers a glimpse into Roelofs' early artistic style, characterized by his keen observation of nature and his ability to evoke a sense of place.
