A vertically oriented etching in black ink on beige paper depicts a beach scene. In the foreground, two women sit on the sand with their backs turned, wearing hats. The woman on the right has long hair and a belted dress. Beyond them, several lightly sketched figures wade in the water. Fine horizontal lines fill the composition to represent the sea and sky. A signature is visible in the lower right corner.
