"Portrait of a Woman II" by Henri Julien Rousseau, commonly known as Henri Rousseau, is a painting by the French Post-Impressionist artist renowned for his self-taught and naïve style. Rousseau, who began painting seriously in his forties, is best known for his richly imagined jungle scenes; however, he also created a number of portraits throughout his career. "Portrait of a Woman II" exemplifies Rousseau's unique approach to portraiture, characterized by a directness and simplicity that diverges from the academic techniques of his contemporaries.

The painting features a female subject, depicted in a manner that emphasizes flatness and decorative elements, hallmarks of Rousseau's style. The identity of the woman and the exact date of the painting's creation are not well-documented, reflecting the general scarcity of detailed records for many of Rousseau's works. The portrait is likely to have been painted during the latter part of Rousseau's career, which spanned from the late 1880s until his death in 1910.

In "Portrait of a Woman II," the subject is typically set against a simplified background that eschews depth and perspective, focusing the viewer's attention on the figure herself. The use of bold outlines, vibrant colors, and a lack of conventional proportion are indicative of Rousseau's self-taught background and his affinity for the avant-garde movements of his time, such as Primitivism, which embraced non-Western or folk art influences.

The painting's significance lies not only in its aesthetic qualities but also in its representation of Rousseau's contribution to the development of modern art. His work, including "Portrait of a Woman II," would go on to influence a generation of artists, including several key figures of the Parisian avant-garde, such as Pablo Picasso and Jean Hugo. Rousseau's portraiture, while less celebrated than his fantastical landscapes, offers a compelling insight into his broader oeuvre and the evolution of early 20th-century art.

As with many of Rousseau's portraits, "Portrait of a Woman II" is held in high regard for its charm and the way it captures the essence of the subject through a seemingly naïve yet profoundly expressive technique. The painting is a testament to Rousseau's unique vision and his enduring impact on the trajectory of modern art.
