"Bathers (Étaples)" is a painting by Scottish artist Samuel Peploe, painted in 1906. The work is a prime example of Peploe's Post-Impressionist style, characterized by bold brushstrokes and vibrant color. The composition is a loose and gestural depiction of figures on a beach, with their forms simplified and rendered in broad, expressive strokes. The painting evokes the vibrancy and movement of the seaside, capturing a fleeting moment in time.
