"In a Laundry" (also known as "Femmes à la blanchisserie") is a painting by the French artist Edgar Degas, created in the late 19th century, around 1876. This work is part of Degas's broader exploration of Parisian life and his interest in the labor of women. The painting depicts several women engaged in the laborious task of laundry, a common theme that Degas revisited multiple times, highlighting the physical strain and the mundane nature of the work.

The composition of "In a Laundry" is notable for its dynamic arrangement and the use of perspective that emphasizes the arduous physicality of the women's work. The figures are portrayed in various poses, bending and stretching as they handle the fabrics, which allows Degas to explore human anatomy under stress. The color palette is subdued, with a predominance of cool tones that echo the damp, steam-filled atmosphere of the laundry environment.

Degas's technique in this painting includes loose, expressive brushstrokes that were characteristic of his later works, moving towards Impressionism. He captures the textures of the wet cloth and the steamy air, adding a tactile quality to the scene. "In a Laundry" is an example of Degas's mastery in combining social commentary with aesthetic innovation, offering a glimpse into the often-overlooked lives of working-class women in Paris during the late 19th century.

This painting is held in high regard not only for its artistic qualities but also for its contribution to the social narrative of the era, reflecting Degas's ongoing commitment to depicting the unseen segments of society. The artwork remains a significant piece within Degas's oeuvre, illustrating his skill in rendering both the beauty and the burden of everyday labor.
