Original illustration art depicting a smiling couple in early 20th century beach attire standing before a seaside backdrop. A handsome blond young man unfurls a red towel or robe for a young woman in a chic black and yellow bathing costume with matching headscarf and boots. This may have been painted as the original for a catalog, magazine cover, or promotional calendar.
Condition: Generally very good with the usual light overall toning and soiling. Glue residue on edges from original framing, easily matted out.
