French Prints by Twentieth-Century Masters

Four people are depicted from the waist up, sitting closely together. Two younger individuals sit between two older figures, all wearing dark shawls and distinctively tied white caps with pink accents. The older individuals have prominent profiles with elongated noses, while the younger people have rounder faces. They have neutral expressions facing the sea. They are positioned against a backdrop that includes rustic stone huts with thatched roofs. On the left, there is a view of the sea behind some structures, and some green thistle-like plants are in the foreground.
