"Lady with a Parrot" is a 17th-century oil painting by the Dutch Golden Age painter Gabriel Metsu, created circa 1662. The painting is a genre work, a type of painting that depicts scenes of everyday life, for which Dutch artists of the period were renowned. It is housed in the Herzog Anton Ulrich Museum in Braunschweig, Germany.

The artwork features an elegantly dressed woman in a domestic interior, a common theme in Metsu's oeuvre. She is depicted at a moment of leisure, seated beside a table and interacting with a parrot, a pet that was considered exotic and was a status symbol during the period. The woman's attire and the furnishings of the room suggest a setting of wealth and comfort, reflecting the prosperity of the Dutch Republic at the time.

Metsu's skillful use of lighting and color enhances the intimacy of the scene, with the light entering from the left and illuminating the woman's face, the rich fabrics, and the bird, creating a sense of depth and texture. The painting is notable for its fine detail and the psychological connection it establishes between the subject and the viewer. The presence of the parrot, often a symbol of vanity or the fleeting nature of life, may also carry allegorical significance, a common feature in Dutch genre paintings.

As a master of genre scenes, Metsu was adept at capturing the nuances of daily life and the subtleties of human interaction. "Lady with a Parrot" exemplifies his talent for portraying the elegance and quiet moments of the upper middle class in 17th-century Netherlands. The painting is an important work in Metsu's body of art and contributes to the understanding of the social and cultural context of the time.
