It was the Eakins "Swimming Hole" painting that I was referring to in my earlier post. We had the opportunity to see the wonderful Eakins exhibit recently when it appeared in Philadelphia, and that painting was included. The image that Tim included doesn't hold a candle to it and I also can't see the fakery he refers to. The exhibit also featured many of Eakins' photographs of people in the nude and it was obvious that he studied the human figure extensively. That study is evident in paintings such as this one.
