Frau mit Handarbeit (Woman with Needlework) is a 1912 ink by Lovis Corinth, held at National Gallery of Art.
The painting depicts a woman sitting in a chair, engaged in needlework. Her dark hair is pulled back, and she wears a white dress with a high neckline. The woman's face is turned slightly to her right, and her hands are busy with the needlework. In the background, there is a wall with vertical lines, possibly a wood paneling or a textile. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet contemplation, with the woman fully absorbed in her task.
