A Young Woman Leaning on the Edge of a Window is a 1800 oil by Marie-Victoire Lemoine, a Rococo painting work, depicting Woman, held at National Gallery of Victoria.
The painting shows a young woman leaning on the edge of a window, her elbow resting on the windowsill. She wears a white dress and a red headband, with her right hand holding a piece of paper. The room's interior is visible behind her, featuring a table with a vase of flowers and a statue of a winged figure. The woman's posture and facial expression convey a sense of contemplation, as if lost in thought. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the scene.
