La liseuse au coussin is a 1905 oil by Édouard Vuillard, depicting Reading, held at Fitzwilliam Museum.
This painting shows a woman sitting on a couch, engrossed in reading a book. She wears a dark dress and a hat, and the couch behind her has a floral pattern. The room is dimly lit, with soft, muted colors dominating the scene. The woman's posture suggests she is deeply absorbed in her book, oblivious to her surroundings. The artist's use of soft colors and gentle brushstrokes creates a sense of calmness and serenity in the scene.
