"The Distraught Woman" is a painting by the French artist Jean-Jacques Henner (1829–1905), known for his use of sfumato and chiaroscuro in the portrayal of nudes, religious subjects, and portraits. This particular work is emblematic of Henner's style, which often features solitary female figures imbued with a sense of melancholy or introspection. "The Distraught Woman" captures the emotional intensity of its subject through Henner's skillful use of light and shadow, as well as his delicate brushwork.

While the exact date of creation for "The Distraught Woman" is not well-documented, Henner's oeuvre is generally situated in the latter half of the 19th century, a period marked by a variety of artistic movements, including Romanticism, Realism, and Symbolism. Henner's work, with its dreamlike quality and focus on the ethereal, has elements that align with the Symbolist movement, which sought to express the ineffable aspects of human experience.

The painting depicts a woman in a state of emotional turmoil. Her pose and expression suggest a moment of profound grief or despair. The use of muted colors and the soft focus on the figure's surroundings contribute to the painting's evocative mood. Henner's technique, particularly his handling of the woman's skin and hair, demonstrates his mastery of painting the human form.

"The Distraught Woman" is part of Henner's broader legacy as an artist who was able to convey deep feeling through his paintings. His works are held in various collections and museums, including the Musée des Beaux-Arts in his hometown of Bernwiller, and the Musée national Jean-Jacques Henner in Paris, dedicated to his art. This painting continues to be studied and appreciated for its emotional depth and technical proficiency, characteristic of Henner's sensitive approach to his subjects.
