I recently visited the Philadelphia Museum of Art - long overdue as I hadn't been there in over a year... and was drawn back to several pieces, one in particular: Degas' "After the Bath, c.1896". There are several nude bather pieces by Degas, but only one in this museum... Granted, this jpeg doesn't do it much justice - however, I can only say that as an original piece of art, it was stunning. A richness in burnt reds and oranges, as well the uniquely engaging semi-spiral pose of the woman bather - an extraordinary work of art...
