"Women of Dominica" is a painting by Agostino Brunias (c. 1730 – 1796), an Italian painter known for his colorful depictions of life in the British West Indies during the colonial period. Brunias, who spent a significant part of his career in the Caribbean, particularly in Dominica, is celebrated for his detailed and often idealized representations of the social hierarchy and customs of the colonial Caribbean.

The painting "Women of Dominica" is a testament to Brunias's keen interest in the everyday lives of the people, especially women, of the Caribbean islands. It portrays women, likely of mixed African and European heritage, known as 'Free Women of Color', in a naturalistic and serene setting. The subjects are typically depicted in vibrant attire, engaging in daily activities that reflect their cultural practices and social status.

As an artist, Brunias was commissioned by British colonial administrators and plantocracy, who were eager to have visual records and representations of their estates and the people they governed. His works, including "Women of Dominica," served as both ethnographic records and colonial propaganda, presenting an often romanticized view of the colonial experience.

The painting is significant for its historical and cultural value, providing insight into the complexities of race, class, and gender in the colonial West Indies. It is also an important piece for the study of the representation of women and the dynamics of colonial power in art. "Women of Dominica" is a notable example of Brunias's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of the visual culture of the Caribbean during the 18th century.

While the exact date of creation for "Women of Dominica" is not well-documented, Brunias's work in the Caribbean spanned from the 1760s until his death in 1796. His paintings are held in various collections and have been the subject of exhibitions and scholarly research, highlighting their enduring relevance in discussions of colonial history and art.
