Le Yack - The Swimmer - Hand signed

On the edge of the pool, three bare-chested men, a bottle of soda in hand, pretend not to notice they are being watched. Under the yellow parasol, in peach swim trunks, cigarette and glass of whiskey, she watches them. She, precisely, does not pretend.
For once, it’s a woman who keeps the gaze, and it is the bodies of men that pose. The afternoon stretches on, the end of summer hasn’t been announced yet, and no one has yet jumped into the water.
Bodies modeled in warm glazes, lawn and hedges in deep greens, a pink-and-white striped cabin like a studio set. California light smashes the shadows and makes everything a little too sharp.
