"Girl Interrupted at her Music" is a painting by the Dutch artist Johannes Vermeer. It was painted in the baroque style between the years 1660 and 1661, using oil on canvas.

Girl, Interrupted

The painting was the inspiration for the title of Susanna Kaysen's memoir about her stay at McLean Hospital for psychiatric treatment, "Girl, Interrupted". "Girl Interrupted at her Music" was an integral part of Kaysen's mental recovery and understanding. The memoir was adapted into an Academy Award winning film by the same title, starring Angelina Jolie and Winona Ryder.
