"The Bath" (French: "Le Bain") is a renowned oil painting by the Swiss artist Charles-Gabriel Gleyre, completed in 1843. This work is significant in Gleyre's oeuvre as it exemplifies his mastery in depicting the neoclassical aesthetic, which was prominent during the mid-19th century. The painting presents a serene and idealized scene of classical antiquity, featuring a group of women bathing in a tranquil, idyllic landscape.

Gleyre, born on 2 May 1806 in Chevilly, Vaud, was a pivotal figure in French academic painting. He is often remembered for his role as a teacher, having instructed a generation of artists who would go on to become prominent in their own right, including Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, and James Abbott McNeill Whistler. "The Bath" reflects Gleyre's academic training and his adherence to the principles of classical composition, harmony, and beauty.

The painting's composition is carefully constructed, with the figures arranged to lead the viewer's eye through the scene. The use of light and shadow, as well as the soft rendering of the figures, contributes to the tranquil and dreamlike quality of the work. The landscape in the background, with its calm waters and distant mountains, adds to the sense of peacefulness and timelessness.

"The Bath" was well received in its time and contributed to Gleyre's reputation as a leading artist of the neoclassical movement. Today, the painting is held in high regard for its technical proficiency and its embodiment of the romanticized classical spirit that was sought after during the artist's lifetime. It remains an important example of 19th-century academic art and continues to be studied for its aesthetic qualities and its place in the history of European painting.
