''La Toilette'' is a series of pastels and paintings by the French artist Edgar Degas, created in the late 19th century, which depict women in various stages of personal grooming and bathing. Degas, who is often associated with the Impressionist movement, was known for his fascination with the human figure and everyday scenes. The ''La Toilette'' works are particularly notable for their intimate, voyeuristic quality, as they often portray women in private, unguarded moments.

The ''La Toilette'' series exemplifies Degas's innovative use of color and light, as well as his exploration of unconventional viewpoints and cropping, which were influenced by Japanese prints and photography. These compositions often feature women bending over basins, drying themselves, or combing their hair, rendered with an emphasis on the sensuality of their forms and the texture of their skin. Degas's brushwork in these pieces ranges from delicate to more expressive, capturing the transient effects of light and the tactile quality of flesh and fabric.

While Degas's ''La Toilette'' scenes are celebrated for their aesthetic qualities and contribution to the development of modern art, they have also been the subject of critical discussion regarding the male gaze and the objectification of the female body. The series includes some of Degas's most celebrated works, such as ''Woman Combing Her Hair'' and ''After the Bath, Woman Drying Herself'', which are held in major museums around the world.

The ''La Toilette'' series continues to be a subject of scholarly interest, with art historians examining the works in the context of Degas's broader oeuvre, the social and cultural milieu of late 19th-century Paris, and the evolving discourse on gender and representation in art.
