"Standing Bather, third plate" is an 1899 etching by the French artist Henri Fantin-Latour. The work depicts a nude woman standing in a landscape, her back to the viewer. The artist's use of delicate lines and subtle shading creates a sense of intimacy and mystery. The print, held by The Art Institute of Chicago, is one of several variations Fantin-Latour made of the subject, exploring the beauty of the human form and the power of light and shadow. The subject matter and artistic style reflect Fantin-Latour's interest in Realism and the beauty of the female form.
