Summer scene of three young boys playing on a beach. All three are pictured naked whose figures can be seen reflected in pools of water left on the sand. The tide is low and the sea runs along the vast coast, reaching rocky cliffs in the background. A small boat can be seen to the far right of the painting. The painting is executed in a realist manner, depicting the young children in stark sunlight.
