After the Bath, 1890-1900
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating pastel counterproof with pastel on paper by Edgar Degas. The artwork showcases a scene of intimate personal hygiene as a woman leans forward, balancing herself while climbing out of a bath. Degas, known for his impressionistic style, beautifully captures the moment with delicate brushstrokes and subtle colors. The composition draws us in with its close-up view of the female figure, her back turned away from us as she looks down. Her posture and expression convey both vulnerability and strength. We can almost feel her skin's softness and the weightlessness of her legs raised in mid-air. This late nineteenth-century piece reflects daily life during that era when bathing was seen as an essential part of personal care. It also highlights Degas' fascination with capturing human movement and everyday activities through his art. Mounted on paper, this print measures 48.2 x 40.5 cm and belongs to a private collection. Its presence adds elegance to any room or interior decoration scheme due to its fine art quality and historical significance. As we gaze upon "After the Bath" we are transported back in time to witness this fleeting moment frozen forever by Degas' skilled hand. This masterpiece continues to captivate viewers today with its timeless beauty and enduring impressionist charm.
