Group of Bathers 1897

"Group of Bathers" is an etching by Camille Pissarro, a leading figure in the Impressionist movement, created in 1897. The print depicts a group of nude figures in a shadowy landscape, their forms rendered with loose, expressive lines and dark tones. Pissarro's signature style is evident in the use of etching to capture the play of light and shadow, emphasizing the fleeting nature of the scene. This artwork, now housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, showcases Pissarro's exploration of both the human form and the natural world.
