[1] The painting depicts in the foreground the naked goddess Diana, having just come out from her bath, with a female companion.
Diana is recognizable by the crown of pearls that she wears, with a crescent-shaped jewel, and is in the company of a nymph kneeling at her feet.
The bright skin tones acquire reddish reflections, in contrast to the bluish green of the landscape.
[2] In 1987, painter Herman Braun-Vega appropriated Diana getting out of her bath in his painting Diane des tropiques.
[3] By adding two nude mixed-race women also emerging from the bath to the foreground in front of Diana and her nymph,[4] Braun-Vega expresses the advent of a multiracial, multicultural world.
