Rebecca at the Well is a 1839 oil by Jean Baptiste Camille Corot, a French Romanticism work, held at Norton Simon Museum.
This painting depicts a woman in a dark dress and cloak, sitting on the ground with her hand on her cheek. She is barefoot and has a wreath of leaves on her head. To her right is a large clay jug with a green top and two handles. The background is a grassy field with trees and a blue sky. The woman's expression is contemplative, and the overall mood of the painting is serene. The artist has used a range of colors to create depth and texture in the scene.
