'The Bathers', oil on canvas, by Charles Kvapil (circa 1920s). The world of art has for centuries depicted bathers in one form or another. Kvapil's version, inspired by Courbet and Cézanne, is wonderfully alluring. Four nudes appear near a secluded pond surrounded by verdant flora in this very sizeable artwork. As with other works by the artist, the bathers are portrayed as simply another natural entity in the rich, green environment. Although the bathers are in a group, each seems absorbed in their own thoughts, perhaps feeling their interconnectedness with the surrounding trees, the plants along the water's bank, and perhaps also, the fish in the pond. The artwork is in fair overall condition in its original frame. There's a slight blemish in the paint in the very lower left corner and characterful nicks and blemishes on the old frame. The artist signed the work in the lower right hand: 'Kvapil'. Please enjoy the many photos accompanying this listing. Upon request a video may be provided. As further background, bathing scenes were common throughout Renaissance art. In one of his greatest paintings from 1654, Rembrandt depicted Bathsheba resigning herself to the moral dilemma presented to her by the covetous King David, who spied on her as she bathed; one can’t help but wonder whether we are watching from his voyeuristic point of view. In 18th and 19th Century France, painters like François Boucher, J.A.D. Ingres, and Eugène Delacroix cast off the classical and biblical associations of the bathing scene and began to use it as a means of presenting the nude in a more naturalistic way. By the 1920s, the bather had become one of the most common motifs in modern art. Matisse, Georges Braque, Pablo Picasso and Pierre Bonnard all took on the old trope and plunged it into the 20th Century. Cubism took the familiar figure of the bathing woman and deconstructed, rearranged, and refracted her back as if the scene were unfolding through the reflection in a mirrored disco ball...

the most important American Impressionists of his age. While many of his contemporaries focused on the landscape, Frieseke gained his inspiration from the figural, and in particular the theme of femininity. His works capture female figures engaging in traditionally feminine roles — strolling in the garden or posed in a domestic interior. At the Mirror...
