Disparate femenino (Feminine Folly) is a 1816 ink by Francisco Goya, a Romanticism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
This painting shows a group of women in old-fashioned dresses, gathered around a large piece of fabric. They seem to be working together, maybe sewing or weaving. The women are dressed in dark colors, with some wearing white aprons. The background is dark, which makes the women and their work stand out. One interesting detail is the way the women are all focused on their task, with their heads bent down and their hands busy. It gives a sense of community and cooperation.
