Welsh Peasant Girl, Dolgelly, Merionethshire" is a notable work by the English watercolour artist, Joshua Cristall (1767–1847). Originating from his trip to North Wales in 1806, this painting showcases the picturesque landscapes and the traditional rural life of the region Cristall's portrayal exhibits his ability to masterfully render the delicate subtlety of watercolour media, a characteristic that would earn him a position among the founding members of the Society of Painters in Water Colours (later the Royal Watercolour Society) in 1804.

The painting provides a glimpse of the simplicity of Welsh rural life through the depiction of a young female peasant. It gives emphasis to the rustic beauty of the Welsh countryside and the idyllic charm of the peasant girl's costume, intricate and meticulously documented down to the unique features of her hat and gown. This work elucidates Cristall's interest in everyday life, his drive to break away from a purely picturesque tradition and his contribution to the genre of sentimental landscape painting, thereby playing a crucial role in establishing watercolour as a respected artistic medium during the British Romantic period.

Moreover, the painting "A Welsh Peasant Girl, Dolgelly, Merionethshire" reflects Cristall’s transitionary style that bridges classic academicism and romantic naturalism, demonstrating his dedication to capturing the essence of the subject’s character and setting without sacrificing artistic integrity.

Despite lacking a more significant historical backdrop or narrative, the painting has garnered recognition for its aesthetic value and artistic subtlety. It presents Cristall's profound understanding of human figures, his distinct delicacy in handling watercolour and his unique depiction of the rustic life and beautiful landscapes, thus making it an important piece in his artistic repertoire.
