This is a black and white photograph taken at a flea-market. The left side of the composition shows a woman wearing a striped shirt and a beret sitting against the side of an automobile. She appears from the waist up in three-quarter profile gazing toward the right side of the image. A large framed piece of art fills the right side of the composition and shows a nude female form with one arm raised on a dark background.
