An academic school painting titled "After the Bath", was created in 1875 by the painter William-Adolphe Bouguereau.
Bouguereau's work stands out for its simplicity and mastery of drawing, inspired by Renaissance masters such as Raphael. His model, in an exaggerated yet exquisite pose, moves beyond Greco-Roman motifs to highlight the figure of the girl against a coastal landscape backdrop. This painting underscored and demonstrated William's talent that year, contributing to his selection to the Académie des Beaux Arts.
The painting is currently located at the renowned auction house Sotheby's.
