"Brittany Washerwoman" (French: "La Laveuse de Bretagne") is a painting by the French Realist artist Jules Breton, created in 1872. The artwork is a testament to Breton's fascination with the rural life of France and his commitment to portraying the dignity and beauty of peasant women in their daily tasks. The painting depicts a young woman from Brittany, a region in the northwest of France known for its distinct cultural identity, engaged in the laborious task of washing clothes.

Breton's meticulous attention to detail and his use of light and color reflect the influence of the Realist movement, which sought to depict subjects truthfully without idealization. The Brittany Washerwoman is emblematic of Breton's work, which often celebrated the nobility of peasant life while also highlighting the arduous nature of their work. The painting's composition, with the washerwoman as the central figure set against a serene landscape, emphasizes the harmonious relationship between the peasants and their environment.

Jules Breton's ability to evoke emotion and narrative through his portrayal of everyday life has made "Brittany Washerwoman" a significant work within his oeuvre. The painting not only captures a moment in time but also serves as a social document, providing insight into the lives of 19th-century Breton peasants. It is a work that continues to be studied and admired for its technical skill and its empathetic, humanistic portrayal of the working class.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is part of a private collection or displayed in a museum that houses a collection of Breton's works. It has been exhibited in various art galleries and has been subject to art historical analysis in the context of both Breton's body of work and the broader Realist movement.
