Girl at Sewing Machine is an oil on canvas painting by Edward Hopper, executed in 1921, now in the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Madrid, Spain. It portrays a young girl sitting at a sewing machine facing a window on a beautiful sunny day. The location appears to be New York City as is evident from the yellow bricks in the window.[1] The exterior vantage point although present only aids in putting the interior activity in perspective.[2]

It is one of the first of Hopper's many "window paintings". Hopper's repeated decision to pose a young woman against her sewing is said to be his commentary on solitude.[3]
The painting is the inspiration for Mary Leader's poem of the same name.[4]
