Portrait of Erazm Barącz is a 1908 oil by Leon Wyczółkowski, held at National Museum in Kraków.
This painting shows a man with a short, white beard and hair, wearing a patterned robe with red, gold, and purple colors. The background is dark and blurry, with hints of brown and black. The man's face is turned slightly to the left, and his eyes seem to be looking down. His robe has a high collar and is draped over his shoulders, with intricate patterns and designs visible on the fabric. The painting's use of chiaroscuro creates a sense of depth and dimensionality, drawing the viewer's eye to the subject's face and robe.
