About the piece

Painted in 1877, Kazimierz Pochwalski’s 'Boys Bathing' captures a moment of youthful leisure within a lush, dark woodland. The artist demonstrates masterful academic skill in the rendering of anatomy and the play of light on skin, contrasting the pale figures against the deep greens of the surrounding foliage.
