"La Femme Qui Lit" or "La Liseuse" is a notable painting by the French artist Jean-Jacques Henner (1829–1905). Known for his use of sfumato and chiaroscuro techniques, Henner's work often features solitary female figures with a distinctive use of light and shadow, which is evident in this particular piece. "La Femme Qui Lit" depicts a woman deeply engrossed in reading a book, embodying a sense of tranquility and intellectual engagement.

The painting is a fine example of Henner's skill in capturing the texture of skin and the softness of fabric, as well as his ability to convey a mood of introspection and calm. The subject, a common theme in 19th-century art, reflects the era's growing interest in literacy, education for women, and the private, contemplative moments of domestic life.

Jean-Jacques Henner, a native of Alsace, received his training at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and was influenced by the works of the Italian Renaissance and his contemporaries in the French academic circles. His paintings often feature mythological and biblical subjects, as well as portraits and nudes, rendered with a romantic sensibility that was appreciated during his time.

"La Femme Qui Lit" is part of Henner's oeuvre that contributed to his reputation as a master of French academic painting. His works are held in various museum collections, including the Musée d'Orsay and the Musée national Jean-Jacques Henner in Paris, which is dedicated to his life and art. This particular painting continues to be studied and admired for its technical proficiency and its evocative portrayal of quietude and reflective solitude.
