Painting Description
''On the Terrace'' (French: ''Sur la terrasse'') is an oil painting by French artist Berthe Morisot, completed in 1874. As a prominent figure in the Impressionist movement, Morisot was known for her delicate brushwork, attention to light, and focus on domestic life and the private spheres of women. This painting is a quintessential example of her style and subject matter, showcasing her ability to capture the nuances of everyday life with a modern sensibility.
The painting depicts two figures, believed to be Morisot's sister, Edma Pontillon, and Edma's daughter, Jeanne, sitting on the terrace of a house. The setting is likely to be in the Parisian suburb of Bougival, where Morisot spent her summers. The composition is characterized by its loose brushstrokes, vibrant light, and the intimate portrayal of the subjects. The figures are positioned against a backdrop of a lush garden, with the dappled sunlight filtering through the foliage, creating a pattern of light and shadow on the subjects and the surrounding environment.
''On the Terrace'' is notable for its reflection of the Impressionist interest in capturing the transient effects of light and atmosphere. Morisot's use of color and her ability to convey texture and depth through her brushwork contribute to the painting's sense of immediacy and the fleeting moment it represents. The work also exemplifies the Impressionist practice of painting en plein air (outdoors), which allowed artists to work with natural light and to depict scenes of modern life.
The painting is part of the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago, where it continues to be exhibited and appreciated for its contribution to the Impressionist movement and its insight into the life and work of Berthe Morisot. ''On the Terrace'' remains an important work in the study of Impressionism and in the broader context of 19th-century art, reflecting the social changes and artistic innovations of the time.
