Oil Painting The Bath (1880-85) by Jean-Léon Gérôme

When looking deeper into this painting, the white woman’s face is looking away from the African woman. This relationship plays into an orientalist lens because the white woman is putting out her hand as if she has no respect for the woman washing her; a power struggle is clearly seen. I tried to indicate this in the animation.
