A vertically oriented black-and-white photograph depicts a nude girl with a light skin tone from the waist up, her hands folded under her chin and her arms covering her breasts. She looks directly out at the camera, her hair falling straight behind her back, a shorter strip of hair falling over her left brow. She stands out against a dark background, lights shining over left side of her body. There are visible tan lines of a bathing suit.
