Dike Building on the Beach at Knokke is a 1909 oil by Richard Baseleer, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp.
This painting depicts a serene beach scene, with a dike under construction in the foreground. The dike is being built by workers, who are scattered along its length. In the background, the sea stretches out to the horizon, with a few figures visible on the beach. The painting's color palette is muted, with shades of brown and gray dominating the scene. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, giving the painting a sense of movement and energy. The painting is reminiscent of the work of Richard Baseleer, who was known for his landscapes and seascapes.
