"Les Lavandières en Bretagne" (The Washerwomen in Brittany) is an oil painting by French Post-Impressionist artist Émile Bernard, created in 1888. This work is notable for its representation of rural life in Brittany and is a prime example of the Synthetist style, which Bernard helped to develop alongside his contemporaries, such as Paul Gauguin. Synthetism was characterized by the use of flat forms, bold colors, and an emphasis on the emotional and symbolic content of the subject over realistic representation.

The painting depicts a group of washerwomen at work, a common theme in the art of the period that highlights the everyday life of the peasantry. Bernard's approach to this subject is distinctive for its simplified forms and the use of a limited color palette, which creates a harmonious and rhythmic composition. The figures are stylized and the landscape is reduced to essential shapes, reflecting Bernard's interest in Japanese prints and medieval stained glass art, both of which influenced the Synthetist movement.

"Les Lavandières en Bretagne" is considered an important work in Bernard's oeuvre and in the broader context of Post-Impressionism. It captures the essence of a time and place through the lens of the artist's innovative aesthetic principles. The painting is also a testament to the cultural and artistic exchange that occurred in the artist's colony of Pont-Aven, where Bernard worked alongside Gauguin and other avant-garde artists. This work is held in high regard for its contribution to the development of modern art at the turn of the 20th century.
