Bathers
Artist: Lyonel Feininger
Circa: 1914

German-American artist Lyonel Feininger painted Bathers in 1914, during his formative Expressionist period associated with the Berlin Secession and later the Bauhaus. The watercolor depicts figures in a muted yet dynamic seaside scene, their forms distilled into simplified shapes and blocks of color. Feininger’s characteristic architectural sense of composition is evident even in this figure subject, as the horizon and background structures anchor the rhythm of the bodies in motion. The work bridges his early figurative style and the crystalline abstraction that would later define his career.
