"A Little Washerwoman" (French: "La petite laveuse") is an 1888 painting by French post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin. This artwork is notable for its representation of a young girl engaged in the act of washing, a subject that reflects Gauguin's interest in the everyday lives of the people, particularly during his time in Brittany, where he sought to capture the essence of a simpler, more primitive lifestyle away from the urban sophistication of Paris.

The painting is executed in oil on canvas and is characterized by Gauguin's distinctive use of color and form, which was influenced by his desire to move beyond the naturalism of the Impressionists. Gauguin's approach in "A Little Washerwoman" exemplifies his evolving style, which would later become known as Synthetism, a technique that emphasized flat areas of color and bold outlines, and was a precursor to the Symbolist movement.

In "A Little Washerwoman," Gauguin employs a reduced palette with a dominance of earthy tones to convey the rustic and laborious atmosphere of the scene. The figure of the washerwoman is rendered with a sense of dignity and focus, which is a testament to Gauguin's respect for the rural working class. The composition's simplicity and the girl's absorbed demeanor suggest a narrative beyond the mere act of washing, inviting viewers to contemplate the broader social and cultural contexts of labor and youth in the late 19th century.

The painting is part of Gauguin's broader oeuvre, which is marked by his explorations of life in Brittany, his travels to exotic locations such as Tahiti, and his quest for a more fundamental and spiritual experience through art. "A Little Washerwoman" is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied as an example of Gauguin's contribution to the development of modern art and his influence on subsequent generations of artists.
