About this work
The Champion Swimmer, a 1914 work by Edward Poynter, shows a vaulted classical bathing hall with a green-tinged pool in the foreground. Nude male figures climb out of and enter the water near a ladder, while a swimmer floats face down at the center and a seated nude figure rests on the right edge. In the background, draped women attend a decorated fountain niche and another woman carries a vessel on her head up the steps.
