Does the surrounding area look familiar to anyone?
The stitching on the swimsuit is beautiful. I believe she's holding her bathing cap. She forgot to wash her feet.
I wonder if the model is a silent film actress. . .ala Myrna Loy. ...(I have an idea who she might be but I need to do some research first)

Here's another from the same photoshoot with Delphine included.

Looks like it's a substantial hotel with an adjacent golf course.
As for Delphine De Remeaux and her shot at stardom. She submitted a hand writing sample to showbiz writer Fritzi Remont who doubled as a “graphologist”
and offered character readings and vocational guidance to budding stars.

Maybe she got discouraged by Fritzi's suggestion that a motion picture career was not for her.
