Boy on the Rocks (French: Enfant sur les rochers) is an oil painting by French Post-Impressionist artist Henri Julien Rousseau, commonly known as Le Douanier Rousseau, created between 1895 and 1897. The painting is a notable example of Rousseau's unique style, which blends realism and fantasy, and is characterized by its vivid color palette and dreamlike quality. The artwork depicts a young boy sitting alone on a rocky outcrop, surrounded by a lush and detailed landscape that includes vividly rendered foliage and a distant body of water.

Rousseau, who was largely self-taught and is known for his naive or primitive manner of painting, was not formally trained in the fine arts. His works often feature jungle scenes, despite the fact that he never left France or saw a jungle firsthand; instead, he drew inspiration from visits to the Paris Zoo and botanical gardens. Boy on the Rocks, however, represents a more domestic setting, possibly inspired by the French countryside.

This painting is significant in Rousseau's oeuvre as it exemplifies his approach to landscape and figure painting, which diverges from the traditional techniques of his contemporaries. The isolation of the figure, combined with the detailed and imaginative setting, invites viewers to contemplate the relationship between humanity and nature. Boy on the Rocks is held in the collection of the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., where it continues to be studied and admired for its unique aesthetic and emotional depth.
