Rachel Ruysch in her studio is a 1696 oil by Rachel Ruysch, a Dutch Golden Age work, held at Metropolitan Museum of Art.
This painting shows a woman sitting at a table, surrounded by flowers and art supplies. She wears a blue dress with brown trim and a white lace collar, and her right hand reaches out to touch a flower. The table is cluttered with books, papers, and paintbrushes, and a few flowers lie scattered on the surface. The woman's face is turned towards the viewer, and her expression is calm and focused. The background of the painting is dark, which helps to highlight the woman and her surroundings. The overall effect is one of quiet contemplation and creativity.
