"Head of a Young Woman" is a mid-1770s oil on canvas painting by the French artist Jean-Baptiste Greuze (1725–1805), who was renowned for his portraiture and genre paintings that often carried moralistic overtones. This work is characteristic of Greuze's skill in capturing the delicate expressions and emotions of young women, a subject that he frequently explored throughout his career. The painting depicts the head of a young woman in a three-quarter view, her gaze slightly averted, which imbues the portrait with a sense of introspection or modesty.

The artwork reflects the transitional period in French art from Rococo to Neoclassicism, where artists like Greuze sought to convey a greater sense of moral virtue and simplicity in their works, as opposed to the frivolous and ornamental style that had previously dominated the French art scene. "Head of a Young Woman" exemplifies this shift through its emphasis on the natural beauty and innocence of the subject, devoid of excessive adornment or theatricality.

Greuze's ability to render the textures of skin and fabric, as well as his nuanced use of light and shadow, contribute to the lifelike quality of the painting. The young woman's attire and hairstyle are indicative of the period, providing additional context for the work within the broader scope of 18th-century French portraiture.

While the painting is not as widely known as some of Greuze's other works, such as "The Village Bride" or "The Father's Curse," it remains a fine example of his artistic talent and his contribution to the evolution of French art. "Head of a Young Woman" is held in a private collection or museum, and it continues to be studied for its aesthetic qualities and its place within Greuze's oeuvre and the larger narrative of art history.
