A museum-grade reproduction of Bathers Surprised by Irish artist William Mulready (1786–1863), presented as a premium Collector’s Edition for discerning art collectors and interiors.

About the Artwork

Painted in the early nineteenth century, Bathers Surprised is one of Mulready’s most striking narrative compositions. Set within a pastoral Irish landscape, the scene captures a moment of sudden interruption as a group of female bathers react to an unexpected onlooker. The central figure, unaware of the disturbance, anchors the composition with classical poise, while the surrounding figures animate the scene with movement, modesty, and human drama.

Mulready’s mastery is evident in his anatomical precision, delicate handling of flesh tones, and sophisticated use of colour and light. The work reflects his reputation as one of Ireland’s most accomplished genre painters and a favourite of Victorian collectors, including Queen Victoria herself.
