Each is wearing a hat, which along with their attire gives a genteel, early 20th-century appearance.The setting is also a significant aspect of this piece. Behind the men, there's a detailed sketching of trees and foliage that create a dense, natural background, invoking a serene park atmosphere. Further adding intrigue and balance to the composition is an ornate fountain visible in the top right corner, which adds an element of classic beauty to the scene.The artwork is rendered in a soft, sketchy style, employing delicate pencil lines to define forms and create shading, successfully evoking the feel of a breezy, leisurely day in the outdoors. Overall, it is a reflective piece, emphasizing the beauty of everyday moments and the importance of interpersonal connections amidst serene surroundings.

Nudes, street scenes and landscapes of women and tropical locations by Bulgarian-born American painter Jules Pascin (1885-1930). Born to an affluent family, Pascin was educated in Austria and Germany before moving to Paris in 1905. It was there that he became associated with the Modernist movement. He attached himself to the human condition and was known for painting portraits of nude and half-dressed women. He stands in the grand tradition of the romantic, bohemian artist.
