"Portrait of an Old Woman" is a notable work by the Italian Baroque painter Guido Reni, created between 1611 and 1612. This painting is an example of Reni's skill in portraiture, a genre in which he was less prolific compared to his religious and mythological subjects. The artwork depicts an elderly woman in a direct and unidealized manner, which was a departure from the more common practice of flattering depictions in portraiture of the era.

The painting is remarkable for its realistic representation of old age, capturing the textures of the woman's wrinkled skin and the softness of her gaze with a sympathetic touch. Reni's use of chiaroscuro, the strong contrast between light and dark, enhances the three-dimensional quality of the subject's face and contributes to the emotional depth of the portrait.

"Portrait of an Old Woman" is often praised for its psychological insight and the dignified portrayal of the subject, reflecting Reni's ability to convey the inner life of his sitters. The work is housed in a notable museum collection, and it continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance within Reni's oeuvre and the broader context of Baroque portraiture.

The painting serves as an important example of Reni's work during a period when he was at the height of his artistic powers, having established himself in Bologna and received commissions from across Italy and beyond. It also provides insight into the cultural attitudes towards aging and the elderly in the early 17th century, offering a counterpoint to the more idealized images of youth and beauty that dominated the period's artistic landscape.
