Welsh Peasant Girl is a 1827 watercolor by Joshua Cristall, a Romanticism work, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
A woman in a blue dress and wide-brimmed hat balances a shiny metal bucket on her head. She stands barefoot on a grassy hillside, one hand resting on her hip. Behind her, a small stone house sits near a wooded valley, with birds flying in the sky. The artist used soft watercolor strokes to show light and shadow on her face and clothes. This painting was made in 1827 by Joshua Cristall. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
