June Sunlight (by Joseph DeCamp) Ceramic Tile

This design features a painting by the American Impressionist artist Joseph DeCamp (1858–1923). It depicts a mother with her daughter sitting on a park bench. The mother is holding a book on her lap as the young girl reads from it. Both the girl and the woman are wearing elegant white dresses. There is a boating lake behind the bench where the mother and daughter are sitting, and there is a wooden jetty at the edge of the lake. The scene takes place during a warm sunny day in the summer month of June. The original artwork was painted by Joseph DeCamp in 1902.
