"Seated Woman" (Dutch: "Zittende Vrouw") is a notable sculpture by the Belgian artist Rik Wouters (1882–1916), created during the early 20th century. Wouters, who was a multifaceted artist skilled in painting, sculpting, and drawing, is celebrated for his contribution to the development of modern art in Belgium. His work often reflects an impressionistic style with a distinctive blend of vivid colors and dynamic brushstrokes, which is also evident in his sculptural pieces.

The sculpture "Seated Woman" is emblematic of Wouters' fascination with domestic life and his immediate surroundings. It portrays a woman in a moment of repose, capturing the essence of everyday life through a modernist lens. The figure is typically rendered with a sense of volume and solidity, yet with a certain fluidity that suggests movement and life. This piece is considered one of Wouters' significant contributions to modern sculpture, as it showcases his ability to convey emotion and character through form and texture.

Rik Wouters created "Seated Woman" during a period marked by personal struggle and the onset of World War I, which adds a layer of poignancy to the work. Despite the challenges he faced, including his deteriorating health, Wouters continued to produce art that celebrated beauty and the joy of life. His wife and muse, Nel Duerinckx, often served as the subject for his works, and it is possible that "Seated Woman" also depicts her, although the specific identity of the model is not always documented.

The sculpture is part of Wouters' oeuvre that contributed to his posthumous recognition as one of the leading figures of the Brabant Fauvism movement. Unfortunately, Rik Wouters' career was cut short when he died at the age of 33 from cancer. Nevertheless, his artistic legacy continues to be appreciated for its emotional depth and its representation of a transitional period in the history of art, bridging the gap between impressionism and expressionism.

"Seated Woman" is held in high regard and can be found in museum collections that specialize in modern art. It is often exhibited to represent the innovation and the expressive potential of early 20th-century Belgian sculpture. The work remains an important piece for both its artistic merit and its historical context, reflecting the life and times of Rik Wouters and the broader evolution of modern art in Europe.
