The beach on the west side of the harbour at Rapallo, Italy. There are many people in the water but a far larger number are on the beach relaxing under umbrellas. A small number of rowing boats are drawn up on the beach on the right. To the left of centre is the monument to Cristoforo Colombo. It is a bronze on a stone plinth with two bronze people groups at the base and it was sculpted by Arturo Dresco in 1914.
