"Lady Writing a Letter with Her Maid" is a celebrated 17th-century oil painting by the Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer, also known as Jan Vermeer van Delft. Created circa 1670, this exquisite work exemplifies Vermeer's mastery of light and shadow, as well as his keen interest in the intimate, domestic lives of women. The painting is notable for its depiction of a moment of quiet concentration and the subtle interplay between the figures, the interior space, and the objects within it.

The composition features a young woman dressed in a luxurious yellow jacket trimmed with ermine, absorbed in the act of writing a letter. She is seated at a desk in a well-appointed room, with a large map hanging on the wall behind her, which was a common motif in Dutch interiors of the time. Her maid stands behind her, gazing out of a window, creating a sense of anticipation or expectation. The maid's presence and her watchful pose suggest a narrative of secrecy and discretion, themes that are often explored in Vermeer's works.

Vermeer's use of light is particularly noteworthy in this painting. The light streams in from the left, illuminating the writing woman's face and the rich textures of her clothing, while casting the maid's face in soft shadow. This interplay of light and shadow not only enhances the three-dimensionality of the figures but also contributes to the overall serene and contemplative mood of the scene.

"Lady Writing a Letter with Her Maid" is a prime example of Vermeer's genre paintings, which often capture quiet, everyday moments with a sense of dignity and a deep respect for the privacy of his subjects. The painting is held in high regard for its technical precision, its subtle narrative content, and its representation of 17th-century Dutch society. It is part of the collection of the National Gallery of Ireland, where it remains an important piece for both its artistic merit and its cultural significance as a work by one of the most important figures of the Dutch Golden Age of painting.
