The recto of this sheet was page XLIX from the sketchbook CP II.
Chappuis' dating of the recto sketches makes this young male bather figure the earliest of the versions offered in this sale, and it is concurrent with Rewald's dating of the two painted compositions of Baigneur aux bras écartés (see note to lot 322). The landscape background is more closely related to the larger oil painting (R 370) than the smaller one (R 369). The bather's physique is remarkably robust, as seen in R 370, and the resemblance to Cézanne's source, the Hellenistic marble Satyr with Cymbals in the Louvre, is clearly apparent.
The second figure, a seated bather, is on a smaller scale than the young bather, a discrepancy that does appear to have concerned the artist as he combined the two figures in close proximity to each other on the same page.
The verso study is a rendering after the left hand caryatide in Marcantonio Raimondi's engraving (see lot 324).
