"Head of a Girl" (1867) is an oil painting by French artist Célestin-Joseph Blanc, known for his portraits and historical genre scenes. Born in 1818 in Castelnaudary, France, Blanc studied under the tutelage of renowned painters such as Léon Cogniet and later became a respected artist in his own right. The painting "Head of a Girl" is a testament to Blanc's skill in capturing the delicate features and expressions of his subjects, often imbued with a sense of realism and emotional depth.

The artwork, measuring 46 x 38 cm, depicts a young girl in a three-quarter view, her gaze directed slightly away from the viewer, which creates an atmosphere of introspection and serenity. The subject's attire and hairstyle reflect the fashion of the mid-19th century, providing a glimpse into the period's aesthetic sensibilities. Blanc's use of light and shadow, as well as his meticulous attention to detail in rendering the texture of the girl's skin and hair, showcase his mastery of the oil medium and his ability to convey a lifelike presence.

"Head of a Girl" is characteristic of Blanc's portraiture, which often focused on the individuality and inner life of his subjects. The painting is also indicative of the broader artistic movements of the time, including elements of Romanticism and Realism, which sought to capture the truth of human experience and the beauty found in everyday life.

While the painting is not as widely known as the works of Blanc's contemporaries, it remains a valuable piece within the oeuvre of 19th-century French portraiture. "Head of a Girl" is appreciated for its quiet elegance and the skillful portrayal of its youthful subject, contributing to our understanding of the period's artistic trends and the legacy of Célestin-Joseph Blanc.
