"The Women of Eger" is an 1861 painting by Hungarian artist Bertalan Szekely, depicting a historical event during the Siege of Eger in 1552. The artwork portrays the heroic involvement of women in the defense of the fortress of Eger in northern Hungary against the Ottomans. This painting is celebrated for its vivid representation of bravery and patriotism, illustrating the women of Eger as they actively participate in the battle, aiding the soldiers by providing them with weapons and engaging in combat themselves.

Szekely, a prominent figure in Hungarian romantic painting, is known for his historical and mythological scenes. In "The Women of Eger," he employs a dramatic composition and intense emotional expression to highlight the significance of the women's role in the siege. The artwork not only serves as a piece of nationalistic pride but also as a progressive depiction of women in 19th-century art, showcasing them in roles of active resistance rather than passive suffering.

The painting is housed in the Hungarian National Gallery and remains an important work in the study of Hungarian art history, reflecting the period's artistic and social contexts. It is often analyzed for its portrayal of heroism, its technique, and its impact on Hungarian cultural identity.
