"Woman Drying Herself" is a pastel drawing created by French artist Edgar Degas between approximately 1884 and 1886. This work is part of a series in which Degas explored the dynamics of female form and movement, particularly in intimate settings. The drawing depicts a woman in the act of drying herself with a towel after a bath, a common theme in Degas' later works which often focused on the nude figure in various poses of daily activities. The composition is noted for its dynamic representation of the human body and the subtle interplay of light and shadow, which emphasizes the tactile quality of the skin and the softness of the towel.

Characteristic of Degas' style, "Woman Drying Herself" employs loose yet deliberate strokes that suggest the form and texture rather than delineate them precisely. The artwork reflects Degas' interest in capturing moments of private life, and his ability to convey the naturalism of the body in motion, which he studied intensely. This piece is exemplary of his innovative use of pastels, combining them with other materials to achieve a deeper color saturation and a more complex texture.

"Woman Drying Herself" is held in high regard for its technical proficiency and its contribution to the development of modern approaches to the human figure in art. It remains a significant example of Impressionist art, despite Degas' own ambivalent relationship with the Impressionist movement. The drawing is currently housed in a prominent museum collection, continuing to attract admiration for its artistic and historical merit.
