After the Bath is a 1898 oil by Edgar Degas, a Impressionism work, depicting Bathing, held at J. Paul Getty Museum.
This painting shows a woman sitting on the edge of a bathtub, her back to the viewer. She's wrapped in a towel, with her arms bent and her head slightly tilted. The room is dimly lit, with soft colors and gentle shadows. The woman's pose is relaxed, and her face is calm. The artist has used soft brushstrokes to capture the texture of the towel and the woman's skin. The overall mood of the painting is peaceful and intimate.
