Henri Lebasque (1865–1937) was a French post-impressionist painter known for his use of light, color, and intimate, domestic scenes. One of his works, Baigneuse (translated as Bather), exemplifies his ability to capture the human figure in a serene and natural setting. While specific details about the creation date and context of this particular painting are not widely documented, it aligns with Lebasque's broader artistic focus on leisure, relaxation, and the beauty of everyday life.

Lebasque was heavily influenced by the Impressionist and Fauvist movements, and his work often reflects a synthesis of these styles. His use of soft, harmonious colors and fluid brushstrokes in Baigneuse demonstrates his mastery of light and atmosphere. The painting typically depicts a female figure, often in a tranquil outdoor environment, such as by a river or in a lush, sunlit landscape. This theme of bathing or repose was a recurring subject in his oeuvre, reflecting the early 20th-century fascination with nature and the human form.

Lebasque's artistic career was shaped by his interactions with other prominent artists of his time, including Pierre Bonnard and Édouard Vuillard. He was also associated with the Nabis group and later the Fauves, though his style remained more subdued and lyrical compared to the boldness of Fauvist painters like Henri Matisse. His works, including Baigneuse, are celebrated for their intimate charm and the sense of calm they evoke.

Today, Baigneuse and other works by Lebasque are held in private collections and museums around the world. They continue to be appreciated for their contribution to modern art and their ability to capture the quiet beauty of everyday moments.
