Summertime is a 1898 oil by Mary Cassatt, a Impressionism work, depicting Boat, held at Hammer Museum.
This painting shows two women in a small green rowboat on a body of water. The women are wearing light-colored dresses and hats, and they're surrounded by several white ducks swimming in the water. The background is a green landscape with trees and a blue sky. The women seem to be enjoying a leisurely boat ride on a sunny day. The painting's use of light colors and soft brushstrokes creates a sense of calmness and serenity. You might want to look up more paintings by Mary Cassatt.
