Sample answer:

The given graph illustrates the average number of visitors who visited a museum during the summer and winter seasons of 2003. Overall, it is apparent that the number of visitors was higher during the summer season as compared to the winter season.

During the summer season, the number of visitors started at around 200 and rose sharply to reach a peak of approximately 550,000 in August. Following this, the number declined slightly and ended up at just above 400,000 visitors in September. In contrast, during the winter season, the trend was relatively stable with the number of visitors ranging from just below 150,000 to around 250,000 visitors from December to February.

Looking at the comparison between the two seasons, it is worth noting that the number of visitors in the summer season was around 3-4 times higher than in the winter season. This difference is evident throughout the entire year, with the number of visitors reaching its peak only during the summer season.
