Publication accompanying an exhibition held Sept-Nov 1990 at the Philadelphia Museum of Art. The exhibition centered on the museum's Great Bathers painting (1884-1887) which was shown with a group of related Renoir pictures and preparatory studies. Essay traces the painting's development and includes discussion of the bathers theme and the place of Renoir's picture within French painting of the 1880s.
