Manet, The Balcony

Édouard Manet, The Balcony, 1868-69, 布面油画, 66-1/2 X 44-1/4 inches (奥赛博物馆, 巴黎) 扬声器: Drs. Beth Harris and Steven Zucker

The three principal figures depicted were each friends of the artist. From left to right they are: the painters Berthe Morisot and Jean Baptiste Antoine Guillemet, and Fanny Claus, a violinist. Some have suggested that the fourth figure, barely visible in the shadows, is the young Leon Leenhoff, the son of Manet’s wife.
