"Bank of the Vistula" (Polish: "Brzeg Wisły") is an oil painting by the renowned Polish artist Aleksander Gierymski, completed in 1884. The artwork is one of Gierymski's most celebrated pieces and is a prime example of his mature period, showcasing his interest in capturing the effects of light and atmosphere, as well as his attention to social themes.

The painting depicts a scene along the banks of the Vistula River, which is the longest and largest river in Poland. It portrays a group of washerwomen working by the river, a common sight in the 19th century. Gierymski's treatment of the subject matter is notable for its realistic portrayal of the laborers' daily life, imbued with a sense of dignity and quiet perseverance. The artist's use of light and shadow, as well as his nuanced color palette, contributes to the overall impression of naturalism and the transient quality of the moment captured on canvas.

Measuring 73 x 116 cm, "Bank of the Vistula" is a testament to Gierymski's skill in landscape painting, a genre to which he contributed significantly during his career. The work is also an important document of the social conditions of the time, reflecting the artist's engagement with the lives of the common people and the changing landscape of Poland in the late 19th century.

Today, "Bank of the Vistula" is held in the collection of the National Museum in Warsaw, Poland, where it continues to be admired for its technical mastery and its poignant reflection of Polish society and environment. The painting is often discussed in the context of Polish realism and is considered a national treasure, representing a key moment in the history of Polish art.
