"Portrait of a Woman Dressed as Vestal Virgin" is a notable painting by Swiss neoclassical artist Angelica Kauffmann, created in the late 18th century. Kauffmann, one of the few prominent female artists of her time, was known for her historical and allegorical works, as well as her portraiture. This painting is particularly significant as it reflects the neoclassical interest in themes from ancient history and mythology, which were prevalent during the period.

The portrait depicts a woman dressed in the attire of a Vestal Virgin, the priestesses of Vesta, the goddess of the hearth in Roman religion. The Vestal Virgins were renowned for their chastity and for their role in maintaining the sacred fire of Vesta. In the painting, Kauffmann's subject is adorned in classical garments, capturing the aesthetic ideals of the time, which favored simplicity, purity, and grace inspired by the arts of ancient Greece and Rome.

Kauffmann's work is characterized by its delicate color palette, fine attention to detail, and the serene expression of the sitter, which together create a sense of poise and nobility. The choice to portray a contemporary woman in the guise of a Vestal Virgin may also be interpreted as a commentary on the virtues expected of women in the artist's own society, as well as an exploration of the role of women in the public and private spheres.

"Portrait of a Woman Dressed as Vestal Virgin" is held in high esteem not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural significance. It offers insight into the gender dynamics of the 18th century and the ways in which classical motifs were employed to comment on contemporary issues. The painting is a testament to Angelica Kauffmann's skill and her ability to navigate the artistic world as a woman, earning a place among the leading artists of her generation.
