Georges-Henri Rivière (1897–1985) was a French museologist, and innovator of modern French ethnographic museology practices.

Cézanne painted Bathers from the 1870s onwards, including numerous
compositions of male and female bathers, singly or in groups. Late in life,
he painted three large-scale female bather groups. In such works, Cézanne
was reinterpreting a long tradition of paintings with nude figures in the
landscape by artists such as Titian and Poussin. - art-Cezanne.com
