The sun glows orange on this bronzed bather as she frames a glorious beach scene. Manicured flower beds of red, blue and green line the beach along the blue waters of Lake Annecy, from which scenic mountains rise steeply. A major tourist destination located in the Savoie region of France close to Geneva, Lake Annecy has been the subject of many travel posters by such artists as Roger Broders and Hugo d'Alési. Hillion p. 178.
