A black-and-white photograph of a man and woman. The man is dressed in a dark 3-piece suit, with a light-colored shirt, double-breasted vest, tie, a brimmed hat and saddle oxford shoes. The man is leaning slightly towards the woman and he has his arm around her shoulder. The woman is wearing a knee-length dress, a light-colored knee length overcoat worn off the shoulders, a light colored cloche hat, a braided choker necklace, and light-colored shoes. A small, dark-colored handbag hangs from her left forearm. Behind the couple are wood-slat benches on which people are seated, and a large pole, giving a nautical appearance. Around the edge of the image is a printed border.
