Las Bañistas 1943

"Las Bañistas" (1943) by Ecuadorian artist Carlos Quizpez Asín (1900-1983) depicts three nude women bathing in a pool of water surrounded by rocks. The painting showcases a stylized, almost geometric representation of the female form, characteristic of Asín's artistic style. The composition, with the women's bodies arranged in a semi-circular pattern, highlights the natural and harmonious environment. The background, featuring a rocky landscape and a blooming tree branch, adds a sense of depth and a touch of vibrant color to the scene. This work exemplifies Asín's focus on depicting the beauty and simplicity of the human form.
