The image shows several people in different positions. Three women stand behind a glass display wearing swimsuits of varying styles. One woman wears a large straw hat. They have different hairstyles including short blonde curls, long wavy dark hair, and an updo. In front of the glass display, a group of people, including a woman with a child, observe the figures behind the glass. They are dressed in heavy winter coats and hats. One person holds a purse. The background behind the women in the display features a painted scene with palm trees. The shading and texturing emphasize the contrast between the warm climate suggested by the display and the cold exterior where the observing figures are.
