Twenty-Six of June, Old Lyme 1912

"Twenty-Six of June, Old Lyme" (1912) by Childe Hassam is a depiction of a woman standing before a mirror, her reflection visible within the glass. The woman is dressed in a loose, flowing robe, her hair pulled back. Outside the window, a vibrant landscape filled with light can be seen. The artwork captures the mood of a warm summer day and is a fine example of Hassam's signature style: Impressionistic, focused on light and color, and often depicting scenes from everyday life.
