"Woman Sewing at a Window" is an oil painting by Welsh artist Gwen John, known for her introspective portraits and depictions of everyday life. This painting, likely completed in the early 20th century, showcases John's signature style of minimalist composition and muted palette. The lone figure of a woman, clad in black, sits beside a window, her back to the viewer. The light filtering through the window illuminates her form, creating a sense of solitude and contemplation. John's focus on the figure's interior life and the simplicity of her surroundings is characteristic of her work and exemplifies the artistic trends of the era.
