A naked woman, adorned with jewelry, is lounging on a chaise longue. The curves of the armchair follow those of her naked body. Seeming to sunbathe, she relaxes in a very relaxed attitude.
The decor is modernist and cubist. Geometric forms with varied motifs are intertwined in superimposed planes.
The atmosphere is summery and marine.
