Summary:The painting of Paul-Emile Chabas is representative of that of the end of the 19th century which relies on the fantasies of the public by showing female nudity. Nevertheless, the artist stands out for having made these figures a subject in their own right, having his young models pose most often at the edge of the water.

This study has also aims to account for the preponderance of the subject of bathers within the artist’s production, a multiplicity that earned him recognition.
