Nymphs of the Stream is a 1920 ink by Arthur Bowen Davies, held at National Gallery of Art.
This lithograph features two nude women, one seated and the other standing with her arm raised. The figures are rendered in a simple, expressive style, with bold lines and minimal shading. The background is a plain white, which helps to emphasize the forms of the women. The artist's use of lithography creates a sense of texture and depth in the image, with the roughness of the stone visible in the lines and shading. The simplicity of the composition allows the viewer to focus on the forms and textures of the figures.
