Grandmother with Louise, Nude Seated on the Floor (Grand-Mère et Louise Nue Assise par Terre) is a 1910 by Suzanne Valadon, depicting Bathing, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
You see a grandmother and her granddaughter, Louise, in this painting. The grandmother is fully dressed, while Louise is nude, sitting on the floor. The interesting thing about this work is that it shows a intimate moment between two family members, and the way the artist painted the grandmother's gentle expression is notable. The way the grandmother looks at Louise is very gentle. This painting also shows the artist's ability to depict everyday life. You can learn more about the artist's style by looking up the technique of impasto.
Marie-Clémentine "Suzanne" Valadon (French pronunciation: ; 23 September 1865 – 7 April 1938) was a French painter who was born at Bessines-sur-Gartempe, Haute-Vienne, France.
