Young Woman at a Window is a 1925 oil on paper realist work by Salvador Dalí, produced in his youth. It shows the painter's sister Ana Maria, seen from behind in front of a window at Cadaqués. It is now in the Museo Reina Sofía, in Madrid.[1]

It seems to be inspired by Caspar David Friedrich's Woman at a Window. It is an example of Rückenfigur.
