''On the Balcony'' is an 1872 painting by the French Impressionist artist Berthe Morisot. The work is a notable example of Morisot's exploration of domestic life and the roles of women in the private sphere, themes that were central to her oeuvre. The painting depicts a woman and a child standing on a balcony overlooking a cityscape, presumably Paris, given Morisot's residence and the Haussmann-style architecture visible in the background. The figures are believed to be Morisot's sister, Edma, and Edma's daughter, Jeanne, highlighting the personal and intimate nature of Morisot's subject matter.

The composition of ''On the Balcony'' is characterized by its loose brushwork and the play of light and shadow, which were hallmarks of the Impressionist movement. Morisot's use of color and her attention to the effects of daylight on the scene are indicative of her interest in capturing the transient moments of everyday life. The balcony, a liminal space between the private interior and the public exterior, serves as a metaphor for the position of women in the 19th century, caught between domestic responsibilities and the world beyond the home.

''On the Balcony'' was painted during a period when Morisot was actively participating in the Impressionist exhibitions, and her work was gaining recognition for its contribution to the movement. The painting reflects the influence of her close association with fellow Impressionists like Édouard Manet, with whom she shared a mutual influence, and her brother-in-law, Eugène Manet, who often served as her model and supporter.

As with many of Morisot's paintings, ''On the Balcony'' is celebrated for its innovative technique and its intimate portrayal of the lives of women, offering a unique perspective within the predominantly male Impressionist circle. The work is held in a private collection, and it continues to be the subject of scholarly interest and public admiration, contributing to the understanding of Morisot's role as a pioneering female artist in the Impressionist movement.
