"Les Lavandieres En Orient" is a painting by French Post-Impressionist painter Emile Bernard. Completed in the late 19th century, this artwork emblematic of Bernard's innovative approach towards color and form which greatly contributed to the development of the Symbolism and Cloisonnism art movements. The painting displays Bernard's distinct style of bold outlines and flat areas of color, attributes that became hallmarks of his work.

This painting's title, which translates to "The Washerwomen in the East," refers to the group of women seen in the picture, presumably performing the task of washers. The unmodulated colors and the outlining, reminiscent of medieval stained glass effects, adds a symbolic, almost mystical, quality to the painting. The focus on everyday subjects, combined with this stylization, reflects the interest of Bernard and his contemporaries in portraying rural and working class life, while also seeking a deeper, symbolic significance.

The influence of the East, suggested by the title of the painting, might refer to Bernard's time spent in Egypt and the Middle East, where he was exposed to different cultural aesthetic practices. The exact location and the identity of the women in the painting remain unclear, offering viewers an intriguing blend of the commonplace and the exotic.

"Les Lavandieres En Orient" is an impactful representation of Bernard's contribution to Post-Impressionist aesthetics and the nineteenth-century fascination with the "Oriental". As such, it offers invaluable insights into the artist's stylistic trajectory, the Post-Impressionist movement, and broader socio-cultural contexts of the time.
