The Bathers
1853
(Museum: Musée Fabre)
This is one of Courbet's three provocative works, the other two being the Wrestlers and the Sleeping Woman. The picture itself was larger than usual. He challenged the typical depictions of a nude body, with dirty feet and heavy figure. It was purchased for 3,000 francs by a man who would become his friend.
