About this work

This painting shows a group of nude women, or nymphs, bathing in a forest. The scene is set in a wooded area with trees and bushes surrounding the women. The women are depicted in various poses, some standing and others sitting or lying down. The painting is done in muted colors, with shades of brown and green dominating the palette. The painting's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and volume, with the women's bodies emerging from the shadows. The artist's attention to detail is evident in the way the light filters through the trees, casting dappled shadows on the ground. The painting is held at the Museum of Ethnography.
