"Femme Cousant" is a notable painting by the Belgian artist Rik Wouters, created in 1912. Wouters, a prominent figure in the Fauvist movement, is celebrated for his vibrant use of color and expressive brushwork, which are vividly exemplified in this work. The painting depicts a woman engrossed in the act of sewing, a theme that resonates with Wouters' frequent exploration of domestic and intimate scenes.

The subject of "Femme Cousant" is Wouters' wife, Nel, who was a recurrent muse and model in his oeuvre. Her presence in his work often symbolizes the tranquility and warmth of home life, contrasting with the artist's own turbulent experiences. In this painting, Nel is portrayed with a sense of quiet concentration, her figure bathed in natural light that enhances the rich, warm palette Wouters employs. The use of bold, unmodulated colors and dynamic brushstrokes reflects the influence of Fauvism, a movement characterized by its radical approach to color and form.

"Femme Cousant" is also significant for its compositional structure. Wouters' keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the essence of a moment are evident in the careful arrangement of elements within the frame. The interplay of light and shadow, combined with the textured application of paint, creates a sense of depth and immediacy, drawing the viewer into the intimate world of the subject.

This painting is part of the collection at the Royal Museum of Fine Arts in Antwerp, where it continues to be admired for its artistic and historical value. "Femme Cousant" not only showcases Wouters' technical prowess but also offers a poignant glimpse into the personal life of the artist, making it a cherished piece in the canon of early 20th-century European art.
