A Woman in a Turban (also known as Portrait of a Black Woman) is a notable work by the French painter Anne-Louis Girodet de Roucy-Triosson, created in 1808. This painting is significant within Girodet's oeuvre and the broader context of early 19th-century French art for its portrayal of a black woman, a subject that diverges from the typical representations of European subjects in neoclassical painting. Girodet, a student of Jacques-Louis David, is renowned for his unique approach that often infused romantic elements into the strict neoclassical style prevalent during his time.

The painting is remarkable not only for its subject matter but also for the dignified and respectful manner in which the woman is depicted. The choice of attire, a turban, and the direct gaze of the subject suggest an individuality and personal strength that were uncommon in depictions of black individuals in European art of the period. This work is often interpreted as a commentary on the issues of race and slavery that were prominent at the time, especially considering the context of the French colonial empire and the abolitionist movements gaining momentum in France.

A Woman in a Turban is celebrated for its technical mastery, the depth of its emotional expression, and its historical significance in challenging contemporary norms of representation. The painting is housed in the Musée Girodet in Montargis, France, and continues to be a subject of scholarly interest and public admiration for its progressive portrayal of a black woman with dignity and grace, marking it as a pivotal piece in the transition towards modern perspectives on race and representation in art.
