"Girl with a Book" (German: "Mädchen mit Buch") is an evocative oil painting by the Polish-Austrian artist Franciszek Ksawery Lampi, also known as Franz Xaver Lampi. Created in the late 18th or early 19th century, this artwork exemplifies Lampi's skill in portraiture and his sensitivity to the nuances of light and shadow, which he deftly employs to highlight the subject's features and the texture of the materials depicted.

Lampi, born in 1782 in Lviv and later active in Vienna, was renowned for his portraits of the European aristocracy and his ability to capture the elegance and refinement of his subjects. "Girl with a Book" is a testament to his mastery of the genre, showcasing a young woman engrossed in reading. The painting is characterized by its soft, diffused lighting and the delicate rendering of the girl's expression, which suggests a moment of quiet contemplation and intellectual engagement.

The composition of "Girl with a Book" is balanced and harmonious, with the figure positioned slightly off-center and surrounded by a neutral background that accentuates her form. The book in her hands is a symbol of education and the pursuit of knowledge, themes that were becoming increasingly significant during the Enlightenment and the years following.

While the exact date of creation and the identity of the sitter remain uncertain, "Girl with a Book" is reflective of the broader cultural movements of its time, where emphasis on education and the role of women in intellectual spheres were subjects of growing interest and artistic representation.

Today, the painting is appreciated for its historical value and artistic merit, contributing to the understanding of European portraiture at the turn of the 19th century. It remains a notable work within Lampi's oeuvre, capturing the essence of an era that valued both the aesthetic qualities of art and the burgeoning recognition of women's intellectual contributions to society.
