"Bathsheba in the bath" is an oil painting by Early Netherlandish painter Hans Memling, created around 1480. The artwork depicts Bathsheba, a biblical figure, emerging from a bath as a maidservant holds a towel for her. The scene, framed by a window overlooking a city, highlights Memling's meticulous detail and masterful use of light and shadow. This piece, now housed in the Staatsgalerie Stuttgart, showcases Memling's signature style and offers a glimpse into the artistic sensibilities of 15th-century Europe.
