The image captures a group of children and adults enjoying an afternoon siesta under the warm sun. The vibrant colours bring life to this snapshot from history, showcasing the vivid hues of their summer clothes and sombreros. Each garment tells its own story as it dances with different shades and patterns against the backdrop of sand and sea.
