Description

Two women sit on a pebbled beach, wrapped in striped and checked towels, one looking down with hands clasped and the other smiling at the camera from under a wide-brimmed hat. A white sun hat lies on the stones in the foreground. Behind them are rocky outcrops, a calm bay to the left, a small domed stone tower on the left skyline and a stone building on the upper right.

Two women sit side by side on a pebble beach, wrapped in striped and checked towels. One wears a hat with a dark band, and a white hat lies on the stones in front of them. Rocky shore and calm water lie to the left, while a small square tower and a low wall stand on the rocks behind.
