The same courtly ideal of feminine beauty to be seen in the paintings of Francois Boucher is present in this sculptural piece by Allegrain. It was an eighteenth century French ideal; small of head and delicate in body with a poetic charm and harmonious elegance. The Bather was sculpted in 1767 for Mme. Du Barry and placed in the gardens of Louvecienne.
