Details
Three unidentified African American women on the beach wear long-sleeved sweaters, skirts, and hats. The two that stand in the back have an open umbrella over their heads. The woman who sits in front of the two standing, has her right side to the photographer and looks back over her right shoulder at the photographer. It appears she is sitting on a pile of coats by a log. An African American man in a swimsuit stands behind them to the right. Another man lies on the sand behind him. There are pilings standing far behind the people.
