''Young Woman Powdering Herself'' (French: ''Jeune femme se poudrant'') is a painting by French artist Georges Seurat, created between 1888 and 1890. This work is a notable example of Seurat's pointillist technique, where small, distinct dots of color are applied in patterns to form an image. The painting depicts a woman, identified as Seurat's mistress Madeleine Knobloch, sitting at her dressing table and applying powder to her face, an intimate moment captured with the objective detachment characteristic of Seurat's style.

The composition is structured with a careful balance of form and color, showcasing Seurat's interest in the scientific theories of color and the study of optical effects. The subject matter reflects the artist's exploration of modern Parisian life, capturing a private, quotidian scene with a sense of timelessness and universality. The painting's vantage point suggests the viewer is an unseen observer, adding to the sense of voyeurism and the exploration of the boundaries between public and private life.

"Young Woman Powdering Herself" is also notable for the hidden self-portrait of Seurat that was originally part of the composition, later discovered through X-ray radiography. Seurat painted over his own image with a vase of flowers, perhaps to make the work more palatable to a conservative audience or to keep his relationship with Knobloch discreet.

Today, the painting is held in the collection of the Courtauld Gallery in London and remains an important work in the study of Post-Impressionism and the development of modern art. Its technical mastery and the intriguing story behind its creation continue to captivate art historians and the public alike.
