"She Turned her Face to the Window" is a 1868 by Winslow Homer, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
The painting depicts a woman reclining on a couch, her face turned towards the window. She is dressed in dark attire, with her hair pulled back, and her right hand is raised to her face. The room's interior is visible behind her, featuring a window with closed shutters and a small table or desk with a vase of flowers. The woman's posture and facial expression convey a sense of contemplation or introspection. The artist's use of light and shadow creates a sense of depth and dimensionality in the scene.
