The painting depicts a beach scene. The beach is brown and sandy, with a few people walking on it. Two people are in the foreground, one wearing a red shirt and the other wearing a brown jacket. The person in red is on the left and the person in brown is to their right. The people are walking away from the viewer. In the background, there are more people on the beach, but they are blurry and not clearly defined. The ocean is behind them, with small waves and a darker blue-green color. The sky above the ocean is gray and dark. The overall atmosphere suggests late afternoon. The painting style is impressionist. The painting is titled "The Beach, Late Afternoon" by Winslow Homer.
