"Badende" (Bathers) is a notable work by German expressionist painter Otto Mueller, created in the early 20th century, around 1919. This artwork is emblematic of Mueller's fascination with the harmony between humans and nature, a theme recurrent throughout his oeuvre. As a member of the Die Brücke group, which sought to bridge the gap between traditional and modern art forms, Mueller's work is characterized by a distinctive use of color and form. "Badende" showcases his unique approach to depicting the human figure in natural settings, often with a simplified, almost abstract form, and a vibrant yet harmonious palette.

The painting portrays a group of nude figures, typically women, immersed in or emerging from a serene, natural landscape, possibly a lake or river setting. This choice of subject matter reflects Mueller's interest in the naturalist movement and the celebration of the body's purity and unity with the natural world. Unlike his contemporaries who often depicted urban scenes or psychological states, Mueller's focus on the tranquility of nature and the human form in its natural state is what sets his work apart.

"Badende" is not just a representation of physical bathing but also symbolizes a spiritual and emotional cleansing, a return to innocence, and a communion with nature that was seen as increasingly important in the face of industrialization and urbanization. The figures are rendered with a sense of timelessness and universality, devoid of specific individual characteristics, which allows the viewer to project their own feelings and experiences onto the scene.

The painting is a testament to Otto Mueller's skill in using color and form to evoke mood and atmosphere, and his ability to convey complex themes through seemingly simple compositions. "Badende" remains a significant piece within Mueller's body of work and within the larger context of German Expressionism, reflecting the movement's broader concerns with emotion, nature, and the search for authenticity in a rapidly changing world.
