Bather 

Joshua LaRock's "Bather" is a contemporary realist painting that depicts a woman standing in shallow water. The artist uses a dark background to contrast with the light-colored skin and white fabric of the woman's dress. The viewer can only see the woman's back, which is draped in a white cloth, suggesting a moment of vulnerability and privacy. This painting, with its focus on the human form, falls within the long tradition of figurative art.
