Bather Seated by the Sea 

"Bather Seated by the Sea" is a pastel drawing by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, renowned for his Impressionist works. This piece, though lacking an exact date, likely falls within the artist's prolific period between 1841 and 1919. The drawing captures a nude woman seated on a white cloth, her body gently rendered in soft, hazy tones characteristic of Renoir's style. The blurred background suggests a beach scene with a body of water, emphasizing the artist's focus on capturing the fleeting essence of light and atmosphere rather than precise detail. This work exemplifies Renoir's fascination with the female form and the beauty of everyday life.
