The Bathers (Small Plate), 1897
EDITORS COMMENTS
by Paul Cezanne is a captivating print that encapsulates the essence of 19th-century French art. This post-impressionist masterpiece showcases Cezanne's unique vision and his ability to capture the changing concept of gender and rural life during that era. In this group portrait, a cluster of male swimmers can be seen undressing in a picturesque woodland setting. The artist skillfully blends elements of nature with human form, as the bathers interact harmoniously with the surrounding trees and plants. The rustic charm of the countryside is palpable, transporting viewers to a simpler time where people sought solace in nature. Cezanne's brushstrokes convey an impressionistic style, adding depth and texture to each figure. Through subtle details and careful composition, he explores themes of nudity and homoeroticism without overtly sensationalizing them. Instead, he presents an intimate scene that celebrates both natural beauty and human connection. This lithograph from "The Bathers" series showcases Cezanne's mastery over oil painting techniques while highlighting his contribution to post-impressionism. It serves as a testament to his enduring legacy as one of France's most influential artists. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , this print invites viewers on a visual journey through time—a glimpse into 19th-century France where artistry thrived amidst changing societal norms.
