"Ladies on a Balcony" is an oil on canvas painting by Eugene de Blaas completed in 1875. It depicts four women, elaborately dressed, leaning on a balcony railing and looking out at a scene unseen by the viewer. The artist, known for his genre paintings of Venetian life, masterfully captures the elegance and subtle beauty of these women and their opulent attire through a palette of warm browns, greens, and pinks. The painting exudes a sense of mystery and invites the viewer to imagine the story behind their gaze.
