"Old Woman Sleeping" is a painting by the Dutch master Rembrandt van Rijn, created around 1656. This artwork, also known as "A Woman Sleeping" or "Sleeping Woman," is an oil on canvas that measures 76.6 cm by 60.9 cm. It is currently housed in the National Gallery, London. The painting is a striking example of Rembrandt's skill in capturing the human condition and his mastery of chiaroscuro—the contrast of light and shadow to achieve a sense of volume in modeling three-dimensional objects and figures.

The subject of the painting is an elderly woman, depicted in a moment of repose, her head resting on her hand as she sleeps. The intimate portrayal is believed to be a character study, a common practice for artists of the time to hone their skills in capturing various emotional states and physical characteristics. Rembrandt's use of light not only highlights the textures and folds of the woman's clothing and the softness of her skin but also serves to convey a sense of tranquility and the vulnerability of the subject.

"Old Woman Sleeping" is often noted for its psychological depth and the empathy with which Rembrandt treats his subjects. The painting's composition and the gentle rendering of the sleeping figure reflect the artist's humanistic approach to his subjects, regardless of their age or social status. This work is a testament to Rembrandt's ability to evoke emotion and narrative through his paintings, making it a valuable piece for both its artistic merit and its insight into the artist's oeuvre.

The painting has been analyzed for its potential symbolic meanings, with some scholars suggesting that it might represent the allegory of sloth, one of the seven deadly sins. However, there is no definitive evidence to support this interpretation, and the work is more commonly appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and the tenderness it portrays.

As with many of Rembrandt's works, "Old Woman Sleeping" has been subject to various studies and conservation efforts to preserve its condition and to understand the techniques used by the artist. The painting remains an important piece within Rembrandt's body of work and continues to be studied for its artistic and historical significance.
