Woman Bathing or A Woman Bathing in a Stream is a c.1654 painting by Rembrandt, now in the National Gallery, London, which acquired it in 1831. It was probably modelled on Rembrandt's partner Hendrickje Stoffels, and represents a woman in a vulnerable state, stepping into her bath.[1] Some scholars believe the painting is meant to represent the nymph Callisto, bathing apart from Diana's entourage.[2]
The painting is broadly executed. Art historian Gary Schwartz refers to it as an "oil sketch enlarged to the dimensions of a full-scale painting" and calls it "one of the freshest and most original of Rembrandt's works in oil."[3]
