"Knabe in kariertem Kleid und Strohhut" (English: Boy in Checkered Dress and Straw Hat) is a 19th-century oil painting by the Austrian artist Alois von Anreiter (1803–1882). Anreiter is known for his detailed and finely executed portraits, often capturing the bourgeoisie and aristocracy of his time. This particular work is notable for its depiction of a young boy dressed in a checkered dress, a common practice in the era for young boys before they were 'breeched' into trousers. The inclusion of a straw hat adds a bucolic element to the portrait, suggesting a connection to rural life or leisure.

The painting is characteristic of Anreiter's style, which often included a meticulous attention to the textures and patterns of clothing, as well as a keen interest in the accurate rendering of his subjects' expressions and demeanors. "Knabe in kariertem Kleid und Strohhut" is a fine example of Biedermeier portraiture, a style which was prevalent in the German-speaking countries during Anreiter's lifetime, reflecting the tastes and sensibilities of the growing middle class.

While the exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, it is likely from the mid to late 19th century, a period during which Anreiter was most active and received numerous commissions for his portrait work. The painting's current location or ownership is not publicly recorded, and it may reside in a private collection or have limited exhibition history, which is not uncommon for works of this period and genre.

As a representation of childhood in the Biedermeier period, "Knabe in kariertem Kleid und Strohhut" offers insight into the social customs and fashion of the time, as well as the broader cultural context in which Anreiter was working. The painting's significance lies in its ability to capture a moment in time and to reflect the subtleties of class and gender expectations within 19th-century Austrian society.
