About this work

A young woman sits barefoot on a rocky coastal slope, spinning thread from a distaff held in her raised hand while the yarn runs down to a spindle in her other hand. She wears a white headscarf, a dark dress with a red-trimmed sleeve, and a patterned yellow and gold shawl, with the sea and a pale sky behind her. This is Jules Breton's painting titled Fileuse, and the signature and date 1872 are visible in the lower right corner.
