"Après Le Bain (Femme S'Essuyant)" is a notable pastel drawing by the French Impressionist artist Edgar Degas, created around 1890-1895. This work is part of a series of bathers that Degas produced during the latter part of his career, showcasing his fascination with the female form and the intimate, private moments of everyday life. The title, which translates to "After the Bath (Woman Drying Herself)," aptly describes the scene depicted: a woman caught in the act of drying herself after bathing.

Degas's approach to this subject matter is both intimate and observational, capturing the natural, unposed movements of the woman. The composition is characterized by its dynamic use of line and color, with the pastel medium allowing for a rich, textured surface that conveys the softness of the woman's skin and the absorbent quality of the towel. The figure is often depicted in a contorted, almost awkward pose, emphasizing the naturalism and spontaneity of the moment.

The artist's choice of perspective is also significant. Degas often depicted his bathers from unusual angles, sometimes from above or behind, which adds a sense of voyeurism and immediacy to the work. This perspective, combined with the intimate subject matter, invites the viewer into a private, almost secretive space, challenging traditional representations of the female nude in art.

"Après Le Bain (Femme S'Essuyant)" reflects Degas's broader interest in capturing modern life and the human body in motion. His bathers series is seen as a departure from the idealized nudes of classical art, offering instead a more realistic and unembellished portrayal of women. This work, like many of Degas's pastels, demonstrates his mastery of the medium and his innovative approach to composition and perspective, solidifying his reputation as a pivotal figure in the Impressionist movement.
