The Balcony | Édouard Manet Postcard

The Balcony (1868-1869) by Édouard Manet is a striking Impressionist painting featuring three elegantly dressed figures standing on a balcony with a dark interior behind them. The central figure, Berthe Morisot, wears a crisp white dress, gazing pensively at the viewer, while the other two figures, Jean Baptiste Antoine Guillemet and Fanny Claus, add to the composition’s sense of intrigue. Manet’s bold use of contrasting colours, particularly the vibrant green of the balcony railing, enhances the scene’s depth and atmosphere. This vintage artwork is an iconic piece of 19th-century fine art, perfect for collectors and enthusiasts of antique reproductions. Use the design tools to add custom text or personalise the image.
