A quiet cove in Popham Beach at the southeast end of the Phippsburg peninsula. The long sandy beach, much of which is a state park, faces the Gulf of Maine.

This photograph is part of the Wittemann collection which is a large set of photographs taken by members of the Wittemann family and made into postcards and sold in batches to businesses in Maine. The Wittemanns themselves were photographers, but they also bought the rights to photographs of local photographers to use for their postcards.
