Mädchen mit grauer Schürze is a 1909 oil by Alexej von Jawlensky, held at Kunsthaus Zürich.
The painting depicts a woman in a blue dress with red sleeves, her hands folded in front of her. She wears a red hat adorned with blue and green flowers, and her face is painted in shades of green and blue. The background is a mix of pink and green hues. The woman's face is rendered in bold, expressive brushstrokes, and her eyes are cast downward. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation.
