About this work

This painting shows several men in a swimming pool. They are all naked, and some are standing while others are sitting or lying down. The colors are muted, with shades of blue, green, and brown dominating the scene. The men seem to be enjoying themselves, with some smiling or laughing. The atmosphere is relaxed and casual, with no sense of tension or drama. The brushstrokes are loose and expressive, giving the painting a sense of energy and movement. The painting is held at the Munch Museum.
