Bathers Wrestling (Baigneuses luttants) c. 1896

"Bathers Wrestling (Baigneuses luttants)" is a black and white etching by Camille Pissarro, created around 1896. The print depicts four nude figures, three women and one man, in a playful scene. Pissarro was a prominent figure in the Impressionist movement, and this etching reflects his characteristic use of bold lines and expressive brushstrokes. The figures are depicted with simplified forms, giving the work a sense of movement and energy. The composition is well-balanced, with the figures arranged in a dynamic yet harmonious grouping. The artist's signature, "C. Pissarro," is present in the bottom right corner. This artwork demonstrates Pissarro's exploration of the human figure and his mastery of the etching technique.
