For those with low vision:
This painting shows a beach towel waving out from close-up, dominated by the shadows of two figures standing together, with two arms reaching up to hold the towel's top corners (out of sight). Beneath the towel we see the sand of the beach around the shadows of the legs. Double-exposed into the top half of this image is the view out an open window onto a porch with a trestle table in shadows that mimic the foreground shadows, and a double-track path cutting away into the beach grass in a curve that mimics the stripes curving in the towel. All the colors are alligned around the sand, the orange of the towel, the light green of the beach grass and the blue of the shadows and towel. In the shadows of the figures, the lower part of an arm suggests tht it's wrapped around the other figure's back.
