"Frau am Spindel" (Woman at the Spindle) is an oil painting by Swiss artist Albert Anker, created in 1903. Anker, renowned for his realistic depictions of Swiss rural life, captures the essence of domestic tranquility and the traditional role of women in the 19th-century Swiss society through this artwork. The painting portrays a woman engaged in the act of spinning wool or flax using a spindle, a common domestic chore of the time that was integral to the production of textiles for household use.

The subject is depicted with a focus on the meticulous details of her task, highlighting Anker's skill in rendering textures and materials, from the softness of the fibers to the wooden tools. The woman's attire and the interior setting are typical of the era and region, providing a glimpse into the daily life and customs of rural Switzerland. The composition, lighting, and the serene expression on the woman's face combine to evoke a sense of calm and industriousness.

Albert Anker (1831–1910) is often referred to as the "national painter" of Switzerland due to his works that frequently featured the simple, pastoral existence of his homeland. "Frau am Spindel" is one of his later works and exemplifies his mastery in genre painting, a style that focuses on scenes of everyday life. The painting is a testament to Anker's legacy as an artist who celebrated the ordinary aspects of Swiss culture with extraordinary attention to detail and realism.

As a significant piece within Anker's oeuvre, "Frau am Spindel" continues to be appreciated for its historical and cultural representation, as well as its artistic merit. It remains an important work for understanding the social history of Switzerland and the development of genre painting in the 19th century. The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it is exhibited occasionally, allowing the public to view Anker's meticulous craftsmanship and his affectionate portrayal of Swiss rural life.
