The work depicts the interior of a bathroom, with a bath at left with two taps, a drawn curtain at the rear, a standing female nude at right facing to her right, her right leg raised on a chair and being dried by her with a red and blue towel, she stands on an oval mat, with a hand basin to her right.


The print is one of a number of lithographic prints produced by Reeves whilst a student at the Royal College of Art in London (1951-54) before he moved to etching which became essentially his preferred printmaking medium fort he remainder of his career.
