"Bath", a chromolithograph from the "Beautiful Bathers" series, showcases a woman dressed in bathing attire, standing on a diving board. Created by William S. Kimball & Company in 1889, the print captures the Victorian era's fascination with leisure and recreation. The woman's red hat, polka-dotted swimsuit, and red shoes create a playful and charming composition, highlighting the era's emerging interest in outdoor activities and a changing sense of fashion.
