Portrait of a girl is a 1750 oil by Jean-Baptiste Greuze, a Rococo painting work, depicting Girl, held at National Gallery of Armenia.
The painting features a young girl with long, curly brown hair and a red headband. She wears a white dress with a black shawl draped over her shoulders, and her right shoulder is exposed. The background is dark, with a subtle gradient of light and shadow. The girl's expression is contemplative, with a hint of sadness in her eyes. Her gaze is directed slightly to the right, as if lost in thought. The overall mood of the painting is somber, with a focus on the girl's introspective nature.
