Description
English: Anders Zorn has come to be associated with paintings of nude young women bathing. In his early paintings on this theme, such as After the Bath from 1895, the women seem unaware of the spectator. They are not posing, but are simply captured on canvas while undressing or concentrating on getting out of the water. This spontaneous character is naturally false, and the nudity is a vital element in the painting. Nevertheless, these paintings are not primarily erotic; instead, the emphasis is on the effect of light. The nude body is hazy, to serve as a sculptural shape in the play of light and shadow in the overall composition.
Svenska: Anders Zorn har kommit att bli förknippad med badande nakna unga kvinnor. I hans tidigare målningar med sådana motiv, som Efter badet från 1895, framstår kvinnorna som ovetande om betraktarens närvaro. De förefaller inte posera, utan fångade på duken i färd med att byta om eller koncentrerat ta sig upp ur vattnet. Denna icke-arrangerade karaktär är naturligtvis skenbar och nakenheten ett av bildens bärande element. Men man kan nog trots detta säga att målningarna inte i första hand är erotiska stycken utan att framställningens tyngdpunkt ligger på ljusets verkan. Den nakna kroppen är oskarp för att plastiskt fungera som en del av helhetens ljus- och skuggspel.
