Portrait of Feliks Jasieński is a 1903 oil by Wojciech Weiss, held at National Museum in Kraków.
The painting is a portrait of a man with a dark beard and mustache, wearing a dark jacket. He is sitting in a chair, with his left elbow resting on the armrest and his hand supporting his head. The background is a plain wall, with some indistinct objects visible behind the subject. The man's expression is serious, and his eyes seem to be looking directly at the viewer. His hair is dark and neatly trimmed, and he has a prominent nose and chin. The overall effect of the painting is one of quiet contemplation, as if the subject is lost in thought.
