Bathing Men is a 1913 oil by Edvard Munch, a Post-Impressionism work, held at Munch Museum.
The painting depicts two men standing in the foreground, with a group of people in the background. The men are naked, and the one on the left has a mustache and is looking at the viewer. The background is a beach scene with a body of water and a blue sky. The painting is done in a loose, expressive style, with visible brushstrokes and vivid colors. The overall effect is one of energy and movement. If you're interested in learning more about the artist's use of color and light, you might want to explore the technique of glazing.
