"A Lady Writing a Letter, with Her Maid" is a painting by the Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer, completed around 1670–1671. The work is held in the National Gallery of Ireland, Dublin. It is one of the later works by the Delft master and exemplifies Vermeer's mastery of light and shadow, as well as his keen observation of domestic life.

The painting depicts a moment of quiet intimacy as a lady writes a letter while her maid stands in the background, looking out a window. The composition is notable for its spatial organization and the subtle play of light across the figures and objects. The maid, who is often interpreted as a confidante or a guardian of secrets, adds a narrative element to the scene, suggesting a story beyond the captured moment.

Vermeer's technique, with its delicate handling of paint and attention to the effects of natural light, creates a sense of tranquility and contemplation. The use of color, particularly the vibrant yellows and blues, is characteristic of the artist's palette. The precise rendering of textures, from the luxurious fabrics to the woman's pearl earrings, demonstrates Vermeer's attention to detail and his ability to convey material qualities.

"A Lady Writing a Letter, with Her Maid" is considered an important example of Vermeer's work and of Dutch Golden Age painting. It has been widely studied for its artistic merit, as well as for the insights it provides into the social and cultural context of the 17th century Netherlands. The painting continues to captivate audiences with its timeless beauty and the enigmatic narrative it suggests.
