The Guest is a 1847 oil by Eugène Delacroix, a French Romanticism work, depicting Woman, held at National Gallery of Armenia.
This painting depicts a woman in a white dress standing in a room with a table and chair. She is looking to her left, and there is a birdcage on the table. The room is dimly lit, with shadows cast on the walls. The woman's dress is intricately detailed, with a red sash around her waist. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet contemplation. The artist's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume in the painting.
