Weibliches Brustbild. (Cecilia) is a 1867 oil by Wilhelm Füssli, held at Kunsthaus Zürich.
The painting depicts a woman with dark, curly hair and brown eyes. She is wearing a white, off-the-shoulder dress with lace trim. Her right hand is touching the dress, and she is looking directly at the viewer. The background of the painting is a dark brown color. The woman's expression is neutral, and her gaze is calm. The painting's style is realistic, with attention to detail in the subject's features and clothing. The use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the image.
