after the bath woman drying herself edgar degasIn Femme schant son bras gauche (after the bath), Degas reveals a precious intimacy, a moment of vulnerability and relaxation. The painting shows a naked woman absorbed in the simple act of drying her arm. The soft contours of her body, the texture of the towel and the warmth of the colours used evoke a tactile, almost palpable sensation. With her impressionistic approach, the artist has succeeded in capturing a genre scene that celebrates the beauty

with paintings such as Eiger

In this way Monet captures the ephemeral essence of the moment

whites and greys

immersed in a world of study and discovery

the night birds

This is where the impressionist artist had installed his last studio

where the dynamism of the strokes and the liveliness of the colours offer an almost auditory vision

reflecting the effervescence of the city

such as the clean lines of the windows and the projected shadows

The composition of the painting emphasises textures and patterns
