"A Peasant Replying: "Dats niet" (That's nothing)" is a 1634 drawing by Rembrandt van Rijn. This etching depicts a peasant, in profile, with a thick beard. He's wearing a simple, loose-fitting shirt and a cap and is standing in a slightly exaggerated pose. In the background, a smaller figure is almost fully obscured by the large peasant. The drawing is known for its strong contrasts of light and dark, and for its expressive use of line. It is a fine example of Rembrandt's signature etching style.
