The Child's Bath (or The Bath) is an 1893 oil painting by American artist Mary Cassatt. The painting continues her interest in depicting bathing and motherhood, but it is distinct in its angle of vision. Both the subject matter and the overhead perspective were inspired by Japanese Woodcut prints and Edgar Degas.[1][2]
It was bought by the Art Institute of Chicago in 1910, and has since become one of the most popular pieces in the museum.[3]
