Bathers – by a Bridge (recto); Study after Houdon’s Ecorché (verso) – by Paul Cézanne

Description

Bathers – by a Bridge (recto) by Paul Cézanne is a dynamic composition featuring a group of bathers near a bridge, painted with Cézanne’s characteristic attention to form and structure. The recto side of the artwork contrasts with the verso, which shows a study of human anatomy inspired by Houdon’s Ecorché. This double-sided artwork reflects Cézanne’s exploration of the human body and his interest in both formal composition and anatomical study.
