Leaving the Bath 1879 - 1880

"Leaving the Bath" is a monotype by Edgar Degas, created between 1879 and 1880. The print depicts a woman in a private moment, leaving the bath. Degas masterfully captures the subtle movements and graceful pose of the woman. The use of a monotype technique, with its unique blurred lines, creates a sense of intimacy and fleetingness. The image, housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to Degas's fascination with the female figure and his innovative exploration of unconventional subject matter.
