Portret Ignacego Kurandy is a 1890 oil by Maurycy Gottlieb, held at National Museum in Kraków.
The painting depicts a man with dark hair, dressed in a black coat over a white collared shirt and black tie. The background is a gray wall. The man's attire and hairstyle suggest a formal or professional setting. The artist's use of oil paint creates a rich, textured appearance. The painting's style and technique are reminiscent of the works of Maurycy Gottlieb, an artist known for his portraits and use of chiaroscuro.
Maurycy Gottlieb (; 21 February 1856 – 17 July 1879) was a Polish-Jewish realist painter of the Romantic period. Considered one of the most talented students of Jan Matejko, Gottlieb died at the age of 23.
