Eastman Johnson’s "Peasant Girl in Window" depicts a young woman in a white blouse and a patterned headscarf peering out of an open window. The use of muted colors and soft details in the watercolor create a sense of quiet intimacy. Ivy foliage frames the scene, contributing to the feeling of seclusion and the rural setting. The painting’s portrayal of a young woman in simple attire is indicative of Johnson's interest in portraying everyday life, particularly of the working class. The work showcases the artist’s mastery of watercolor, a technique he utilized throughout his career.
