Unknown Woman with Head Scarf is a 1805 unspecified by Jean-Baptiste Jacques Augustin, held at Nationalmuseum.
The painting depicts a woman with dark skin, wearing a white headscarf that partially covers her hair. Her head is turned slightly to the right, and she is dressed in a white garment. The background of the painting is white, and the woman's face is rendered in dark tones. The woman's features are delicately painted, with attention to detail in her facial expression and the folds of her clothing. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation, as if the woman is lost in thought. This painting is held at the Nationalmuseum.
Jean-Baptiste Jacques Augustin (1759–1832) was a French artist, born in Saint-Dié-des-Vosges.
