About the piece
In this 1886 pastel, Edgar Degas captures a private, everyday moment with his characteristic focus on the human form in motion. The soft textures of the medium highlight the play of light across the figure as she bathes in a shallow tub, a recurring theme in the artist's late nineteenth-century work.
