Nude in a Tub

'Nude in a Tub' is a delicate Pastel on paper created by Edgar Degas in the 1880s, exemplifying his exploration of the Impressionism movement. The artwork is part of a suite depicting nude women engaging in intimate bathing or grooming activities, highlighting Degas's interest in everyday, private moments. As a Nude painting (nu), it captures the natural gestures and gentle textures of the female form. Today, this piece resides in the Hill-Stead Museum in Connecticut, offering insight into Degas's mastery of capturing fleeting scenes with subtle grace.
