The image depicts a caricature of a person sitting on a wooden structure, presumably a ladder or stairs, entering a wooden bathing area. The person's body is mostly shown, seated with knees bent, and supported by one hand on the ladder. The face has exaggerated features like bulging eyes and a prominent nose, with a receding hairline and a few tufts of hair. The man is wearing shorts or a bathing suit bottom. In front of him, there is water, in which another head with similar exaggerated features is floating. Above the seated figure, the legs of another person walking are visible, but the rest of the body is cut off from view. The background consists of wooden planks as the walls of the bathing area.
