This is a drawing of swimmers in water. In the foreground, one figure appears to be pushing another's head under the water, both with playful expressions. Another swimmer is shown with only their head visible, trying to stay afloat. Above the water is a structure resembling a stone wall or dock, with several figures looking down at the swimmers. They are sketched in outline in various poses. The artistic style suggests a comedic intent with exaggerated expressions and actions, typical of caricature illustrations.
