Portrait of a Boy is a 1490 oil by Pinturicchio, a Early Renaissance work, held at Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden.
This portrait presents a young boy with a serious expression, his brown eyes fixed directly on the viewer. He wears a red tunic with a high collar and a blue band around his neck, complemented by a dark grey cap that covers his forehead. His straight brown hair falls just below his shoulders. The boy's attire is rendered in fine detail, with visible brushstrokes that add texture to the painting. The background, though somewhat blurred, appears to depict a landscape with trees, water, and distant buildings.
