The scene depicts an impressionist oil painting featuring a woman in a light-coloured dress and a wide-brimmed hat sitting in a small boat while holding a baby dressed in pink. Across from them, a man wearing a dark blue shirt and a cap sits facing away from the viewer, gripping the oars to row. The composition is angled from the side, emphasizing the interior of the small vessel and the interaction between the three figures.
The setting is a calm, deep-blue body of water that stretches into the distance, with a distant, blurred shoreline visible under a bright sky. The boat itself is characterized by striking, bright yellow oars and a pale interior, which contrast sharply with the dark blue tones of the water and the man’s clothing.
The style reflects a classic impressionist approach with visible brushstrokes and a focus on light and atmosphere. The palette is dominated by cool blue tones, interrupted by the warm, pale yellow of the boat's structure and the soft pink of the baby's clothing. The lighting appears natural and bright, suggesting a clear day out on the water, creating a serene and timeless mood centered on a domestic, leisurely moment.
