"A Quiet Read" is an oil painting by the British artist Eyre Crowe (1824–1910), known for his genre paintings and association with the Pre-Raphaelite movement. The work depicts a serene scene of a woman deeply engrossed in reading a book, exemplifying the Victorian era's romanticism of literature and quiet contemplation. The painting's composition focuses on the tranquility of the moment, with the subject often portrayed in a domestic setting that emphasizes the virtues of education and introspection.

Eyre Crowe, a student of the famous historical painter Paul Delaroche and an assistant to William Makepeace Thackeray during his travels, developed a style that combined realism with a narrative quality, often illustrating scenes from everyday life. "A Quiet Read" is characteristic of Crowe's attention to detail and his ability to capture the essence of Victorian society through his art.

The painting is notable for its use of light and shadow, which highlights the concentration of the figure and the texture of the surroundings, creating an intimate atmosphere. The artwork reflects the cultural values of the period, where reading was not only a form of entertainment but also a means of self-improvement and moral edification.

"A Quiet Read" has been appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and its representation of the 19th-century literary culture. It remains an example of Eyre Crowe's contribution to genre painting and the broader artistic movements of his time. The painting is part of a collection that showcases the artist's skill in capturing the nuances of Victorian life and the era's prevailing social norms.
