"A Swiss Girl from Interlaken" is a painting by the 19th-century German artist Franz Xaver Winterhalter, renowned for his portraits of European aristocracy. This particular work, less well-known than his grand portraits, depicts a young woman in traditional Swiss attire, capturing the romantic fascination with national costumes and rural life that was prevalent in the period. The painting is characterized by Winterhalter's skillful rendering of textures and attention to detail, particularly evident in the intricate embroidery of the girl's costume and the softness of her youthful complexion.

The subject is portrayed with a gentle, idealized beauty that is typical of Winterhalter's approach to female portraiture. Her pose and expression convey a sense of serene innocence, while the landscape in the background suggests the idyllic setting of Interlaken, a town known for its picturesque scenery nestled between Lake Thun and Lake Brienz in Switzerland. The painting thus not only offers a glimpse into the regional attire of the time but also reflects the broader European interest in the exotic and pastoral during the era of Romanticism.

While the exact date of creation is not specified, "A Swiss Girl from Interlaken" is consistent with Winterhalter's body of work from the mid-19th century. The painting is less documented than his portraits of figures such as Empress Eugénie of France or Queen Victoria, which may be due to its more genre-like subject matter as opposed to the high-profile commissions that brought him fame. Nevertheless, it remains a valuable example of Winterhalter's artistic range and contributes to the understanding of the cultural and aesthetic preoccupations of his time. The current location of the painting or its history of ownership and exhibition is not widely recorded, which may limit the availability of comprehensive information on the piece.
