"Au Repos Apres Le Bain" (Resting After the Bath) is a notable pastel drawing by the French artist Edgar Degas, created around 1893-1898. Degas, a prominent figure in the Impressionist movement, is renowned for his masterful depictions of the human form, particularly in moments of private, everyday activity. This work exemplifies his fascination with the intimate and often unobserved moments of women's lives.

The composition of "Au Repos Apres Le Bain" features a woman in a relaxed, post-bathing pose, captured in a moment of quiet repose. Degas's use of pastel in this piece is particularly significant; he was known for his innovative techniques with this medium, which allowed him to achieve a remarkable range of textures and colors. The soft, layered application of pastel creates a sense of immediacy and intimacy, drawing the viewer into the private world of the subject.

Degas's approach to the human figure in this work is both tender and unidealized. The woman's body is rendered with a naturalism that eschews classical notions of beauty, instead focusing on the authenticity of the moment. This perspective is characteristic of Degas's broader oeuvre, where he often explored themes of modern life and the human condition through the lens of candid, everyday scenes.

The setting of "Au Repos Apres Le Bain" is minimalistic, emphasizing the figure's form and the play of light and shadow on her skin. This simplicity directs the viewer's attention to the subtleties of posture and expression, highlighting Degas's skill in capturing the nuances of human anatomy and emotion.

"Au Repos Apres Le Bain" is a testament to Degas's enduring interest in the female form and his ability to convey the quiet beauty of ordinary moments. It remains a significant work within his extensive body of pastels, reflecting his innovative spirit and his contributions to the development of modern art.
