"The Ballad Singer" is an oil painting created in 1764 by the English artist Henry Robert Morland (1719–1797). This artwork is notable for its depiction of a street musician, a common subject in Morland's oeuvre, which often portrayed scenes of everyday life in the 18th century. The painting captures a moment in the life of a young woman, who is assumed to be a ballad singer, a popular form of entertainment and news dissemination of the time. She is depicted with a naturalistic style that emphasizes her individuality and the personal nature of her performance.

Morland's work is characterized by its attention to detail and the vivid portrayal of his subjects, which often included the working class and their occupations. "The Ballad Singer" is no exception, as it provides insight into the social history of the period, reflecting the artist's interest in the lives of ordinary people. The painting is a fine example of Morland's skill in capturing the character and mood of his subjects, as well as his ability to render textiles and materials with great fidelity.

The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it has been exhibited and studied as part of the broader context of 18th-century British art. It is often cited in discussions of Morland's work and the genre scenes that were popular in England during the Georgian era. "The Ballad Singer" contributes to the understanding of the cultural and artistic landscape of the time, offering a window into the world of popular entertainment and the role of music in public life.

As an artist, Henry Robert Morland was known for his genre paintings and portraits.
