"Bathers at Asnières" (French: "Une Baignade, Asnières") is a large oil on canvas painting by the French artist Georges Seurat, completed in 1884. The painting is one of Seurat's most famous works and marks a pivotal moment in the artist's career as it showcases his interest in the study of optical and color theories, which would later culminate in the development of Pointillism, a technique he pioneered. Measuring 201 by 300 centimeters (79 by 118 inches), "Bathers at Asnières" depicts a group of young men leisurely enjoying a day by the Seine River in the Parisian suburb of Asnières.

The composition is notable for its use of light and color, with Seurat employing a technique that involves applying paint in small, distinct strokes or dots—a precursor to the fully developed Pointillist method he would use in later works, such as "A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte." In "Bathers at Asnières," Seurat explores the effects of sunlight on the water and the figures, as well as the interplay of shadows and reflections, creating a scene that is both idyllic and structured by the careful arrangement of forms and hues.

The painting is also significant for its depiction of the leisure activities of the Parisian working class, a subject that reflects the social and cultural changes of the time. Seurat's focus on the modern life of the city's inhabitants was a theme shared by many artists of the Impressionist movement, though Seurat's approach was distinguished by his systematic and scientific method of painting.

"Bathers at Asnières" was first exhibited at the Salon des Indépendants in 1884, where it received a mixed reception. Critics and viewers were divided over Seurat's innovative technique and his departure from the spontaneous brushwork of Impressionism. Despite the initial controversy, the painting has since been recognized as a masterpiece of 19th-century art and a key work in the development of modern painting.

Today, "Bathers at Asnières" is held in the collection of the National Gallery in London, where it continues to be studied and admired for its groundbreaking approach to color, light, and representation of contemporary life.
