A Bather

Robert Loftin Newman

Cleveland Museum of Art

A painting titled "A Bather" by Robert Loftin Newman depicts a seated nude woman. The woman has brown hair, and her body is illuminated in a warm yellow light. She sits on a white and red fabric, with her knees bent and her right leg raised slightly. Her arms are wrapped around her legs. The background is dark and divided horizontally, with a blue area at the top, a brown area in the middle, and a darker brown area at the bottom. The entire scene is rendered in muted, earthy tones.
