A horizontally oriented black-and-white photograph depicts a nude woman with a light skin tone lying face down along the top rail of a white wooden fence. Her dark hair hangs over the edge to our left while her back curves along the center, her legs crossing at the ankles toward our right. Beyond the fence, a soft landscape of trees and hills recedes under a pale sky.
