Beach portrait, found

From my collection of early 20th century Japanese found photography (picked up during regular trips to the Togo Shrine antique flea market in Tokyo).

 

I like the how the female subject's bathing costume almost makes her appear topless if not for a hint of fabric, the way the woman on the right's black-clad bottom is so prominent, and the fully dressed man is strolling on an otherwise bathing suit bedecked beach.
