An Interior of a Breton Cottage is a 1896 oil by Helen Mabel Trevor, a Post-Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Ireland.
This painting shows a woman sitting in a room, sewing. She is wearing a dark dress and hat, and has a basket of thread or yarn beside her. The room is dimly lit, with a window in the background that lets in some natural light. The woman's face is focused on her work, and her hands are moving quickly as she sews. The room around her is simple, with a few pieces of furniture and some textiles hanging on the wall. The overall mood of the painting is one of quiet industry and concentration.
