Painting Description
'''Nu Sortant De L'eau''' (English: Nude Emerging From Water) is a renowned painting by French artist Paul Chabas. Completed in 1908, this work of art exemplifies the early 20th-century Academic style, particularly known for its idealized aesthetic and focus on the female form. Chabas, born in Nantes in 1869 and a student of William-Adolphe Bouguereau and Tony Robert-Fleury, was a celebrated painter in his time, having won the Prix de Rome in 1890 and later becoming a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts.
The painting depicts a young woman emerging from a body of water, enveloped in the soft light of the morning. She is captured in a moment of serene grace, with her gaze turned away from the viewer, adding a sense of intimacy and tranquility to the scene. The work is characterized by its delicate brushwork, subtle interplay of light and shadow, and the ethereal quality of the subject's skin, which seems to glow against the cool tones of the water and the muted landscape.
Nu Sortant De L'eau gained widespread attention and notoriety when it was displayed at the Salon de Paris, an annual exhibition that was the official art exhibition of the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris. The painting's reception was a mix of admiration for its technical prowess and controversy over its subject matter, as nudes were often a contentious subject in the period's art circles. The piece further gained infamy when it was featured on the cover of the May 1913 issue of "La Vie Parisienne," a French weekly magazine known for its literary and artistic content, which led to its reproduction and distribution as a popular poster.
Today, Nu Sortant De L'eau is considered an important work in the oeuvre of Paul Chabas and a classic example of French Academic painting. It continues to be celebrated for its beauty and craftsmanship and is frequently studied for its historical significance in the context of early 20th-century art and society. The original painting is held in a private collection, but its influence persists in the numerous reproductions and cultural references that have kept the image alive in the public imagination.
