"Summer" is a landscape painting by Robert Seldon Duncanson, an African American artist often associated with the Hudson River School. Duncanson, born in 1821 in Fayette, New York, to a free African American father and a mother of European and African ancestry, became one of the first internationally recognized African American painters. "Summer," created in the mid-19th century, exemplifies Duncanson's mastery in depicting the American landscape with a serene and idyllic quality that was characteristic of the Hudson River School.

The painting "Summer" reflects Duncanson's skill in rendering pastoral scenes that evoke a sense of calm and tranquility, inviting viewers to reflect on the beauty of the natural world. His use of light and color, along with meticulous attention to detail, contributes to the overall peaceful atmosphere of the work. The composition typically features elements such as lush greenery, tranquil bodies of water, and clear skies, which were common motifs in Duncanson's landscapes.

As an artist of mixed racial heritage working during a period of significant racial tension in the United States, Duncanson's success was notable. His work was well-received by both American and European audiences, and he enjoyed patronage from abolitionists and other supporters who admired his artistic talents. "Summer" is considered an important piece within Duncanson's oeuvre, as it encapsulates the themes of harmony and beauty that are prevalent throughout his body of work.

Duncanson's legacy as a preeminent landscape painter of the 19th century is reflected in the continued appreciation and study of his works, including "Summer." His contributions to American art history are significant, as they not only showcase his individual talent but also provide insight into the broader cultural and social dynamics of his time. "Summer" remains a testament to Duncanson's ability to transcend the racial barriers of his era through the universal language of art.
