About the piece

Created in 1910, 'Wet' is a quintessential example of Anders Zorn’s celebrated ability to capture the play of natural light on skin and water. The Swedish master uses a restrained, high-key palette and fluid, confident strokes to depict this quiet moment in nature, exemplifying his late-career mastery of plein-air figure studies.
