An unidentified African American woman wearing a bathing suit and a swim cap stands barefoot on large rocks at the shore of a body of water with her hands above her head as if she's prepared to dive into the water. She smiles at the photographer beneath her left arm. The dark-colored swimsuit has stripes around the armholes, collar, and the belt. A large mansion is behind her on another shore.
