Description
A nude woman kneels with her back to the viewer beside a square sunken bath, both arms raised to gather her dark hair atop her head as water pours from a spout into the tub. The wooden bathhouse interior is rendered in muted ochre, tan, and grey-green tones, with plank walls, a slatted ceiling, and floorboards drawn in angular, faceted lines.
