Gipsy woman is a 1894 oil by Jan Czesław Moniuszko, a Post-Impressionism work, held at National Museum in Warsaw.
The painting depicts a woman with dark hair and a white dress, adorned with a black shawl and a necklace. Her face is turned to the right, and she wears earrings. The background is a muted blue-green color. The woman's attire and hairstyle suggest a specific cultural or ethnic identity, but the details are not explicitly stated. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of quiet contemplation. This painting is reminiscent of the works of artists who explored the use of chiaroscuro, a technique that uses strong contrasts of light and dark to create a sense of volume and depth.
Jan Czesław Moniuszko (1853–1908) was an artist, born in Vilnius.
