information from the Barnes Foundation catalog

description: <p>The blocky peak in the background, Mont Sainte-Victoire, towers over the Aix-Province region of France and appears in at least two dozen of Paul Cézanne's canvases. When Cézanne exhibited this painting at the third impressionist exhibition in 1877, critics were unkind. They complained about the aggressively strange anatomies—one figure's hands appear red and paw-like—and about the unclear relationships between the bathers, none of whom seem to interact.</p>
