About the piece

Painted around 1890, this work by Pierre-Auguste Renoir captures a quintessential Impressionist subject with a focus on light and natural form. The bather is depicted from behind in shimmering blue water, set against a loosely rendered landscape that showcases the artist's celebrated, feathered brushwork and luminous color palette.
