Perkins—A series of photographs of women bathing nude, entitled “The Bathers,” exhibited in the first floor Perkins hallway near Special Collections is routinely complimented and admired by undergraduates, Perkins Special Collections Assistant Mary Vinle said today. “The interplay of light and shadow is especially interesting,” freshmen Lindsey Margetina said while gazing thoughtfully at one of the prints, “It brings out the fullness and vibrancy of the subjects.” Sophomore Michael Nee said he was entranced by the subjects’ lack of clothing because it “hints at the vulnerability of women to the abuses of our system of economic patriarchy.”
