"Woman with a Child in a Pantry" (also known as "A Woman and Her Maid in a Courtyard") is a 17th-century oil painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Pieter de Hooch. The painting, dated to approximately 1658, is a quintessential example of De Hooch's genre scenes, which often depict domestic interiors or courtyards with figures engaged in everyday activities. It measures 65.4 cm × 60.3 cm (25.7 in × 23.7 in) and is currently held in the Hermitage Museum in Saint Petersburg, Russia.

The composition of "Woman with a Child in a Pantry" showcases De Hooch's skill in manipulating light and space to create a sense of depth and tranquility. The scene is set in a Dutch household and features a woman standing in a pantry with a young child, possibly her servant, who is seen from the back. The painting is notable for its meticulous attention to the textures and surfaces of the domestic interior, including the gleam of metal and glassware, the roughness of the brick floor, and the softness of the fabrics.

De Hooch's work is often celebrated for its serene and contemplative quality, and this painting is no exception. The artist's use of light, not just as a means of illumination but also as a compositional element, is particularly evident. The light streams in from a window or an open door, highlighting the figures and the interior, and creating a sense of warmth and intimacy.

"Woman with a Child in a Pantry" is a fine example of De Hooch's contribution to the genre of domestic interior scenes, which he helped to popularize during the Dutch Golden Age. His paintings are characterized by a calm and ordered sense of domestic life, often with an emphasis on the virtues of cleanliness, order, and domestic harmony. This work, like many of his others, reflects the cultural and societal values of the time, offering a window into the private lives of the Dutch middle class during the 17th century.

As an artist, Pieter de Hooch (1629–1684) was a contemporary of Johannes Vermeer and is often compared to him because of their shared interest in the effects of light and domestic settings. De Hooch's paintings are considered important for their contribution to the development of perspective and spatial composition in Dutch art. "Woman with a Child in a Pantry" remains a significant piece within De Hooch's oeuvre, exemplifying his artistic achievements and the enduring appeal of his quiet, contemplative scenes.
