Gaslight is a 1854 unspecified by William Lee, held at Ashmolean Museum.
In this painting, a woman is seated in a chair, her attention focused on a piece of paper she is writing on. She wears a white dress with dark sleeves, and her hair is pulled back. A book rests on her lap, and a small table beside her holds a candle and an inkwell. The room's background is dimly lit, with a door visible behind the woman. The woman's expression is one of quiet concentration, her eyes fixed intently on the paper. The soft glow of the candle casts a warm light on her face, creating a sense of intimacy and calm.
