1768, Francois Boucher, Washerwoman -- Metropolitan Museum of Art (New York)

From the museum label: Together with Shepherd's Idyll, this painting was probably commissioned by Roslin d'lvry for the Château d'Hénonville. At the end of his life Boucher painted numerous large decorative canvases, often culling motifs from other paintings and drawings. Several of the figures here seem to be based on Boucher's memory of earlier works.
