About this work

This watercolour painting shows a group of people in a river or lake, with trees and buildings in the background. The people are all naked, and some are standing in the water while others are sitting on the shore. The painting has a soft, dreamy quality to it, with muted colours and gentle brushstrokes. The figures are all relaxed and at ease, enjoying the warm sunshine and cool water. The painting is held at the Victoria and Albert Museum.
