Portrait of a Boy is a 1920 unspecified by Unknown, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a boy in a dark blue dress with a white collar, standing sideways. His face is round, with soft, pale skin and a gentle smile. Behind him, a dark, rough background blends into a window with light streaming in. A few bright colors—green leaves, a red flower—pop against the dark clothes and walls. The brushstrokes are thick and uneven, giving the painting a textured, almost rough look. The boy’s face stands out clearly against the messy background.
