Figures on a Terrace is a 1870 watercolor by Ferdinand Heilbuth, held at Brooklyn Museum.
This watercolor painting shows a group of people standing on a terrace, dressed in 19th-century clothing. The scene is set against a backdrop of a landscape with trees and hills in the distance. The figures are arranged in a casual manner, with some standing and others sitting on a bench. The artist has used a range of colors to capture the textures and tones of the clothing and the surroundings. The painting's use of watercolor creates a sense of softness and subtlety, drawing the viewer's eye to the figures and their interactions.
