A horizontally oriented black-and-white photograph depicts three nude human torsos in a row, facing left. On our left, two figures with light skin tones overlap. On our right, a third figure has a dark skin tone. The composition focuses on the mid-torso to upper thighs, highlighting the overlapping curves of their hips and buttocks. Strong contrast defines the skin against a dark background. A signature appears in the bottom right margin.
