"Prince Baltasar Carlos with a Dwarf" is a 1631 painting by the Spanish artist Diego Rodríguez de Silva y Velázquez, one of the most prominent painters of the Spanish Golden Age. This portrait is a notable example of Velázquez's early work and his mastery in depicting members of the Spanish royal family. The painting portrays the young Prince Baltasar Carlos, son of King Philip IV of Spain, accompanied by a dwarf, a common practice in European courts where dwarfs often served as jesters or companions to the nobility.

The artwork is significant for its representation of the prince at a young age, showcasing Velázquez's skill in capturing the innocence and regal bearing of the heir to the Spanish throne. The presence of the dwarf adds a layer of complexity to the painting, reflecting the social attitudes and cultural practices of the 17th-century Spanish court. Velázquez's use of light and shadow, as well as his attention to detail in the textures of clothing and the figures' expressions, contribute to the painting's lifelike quality and psychological depth.

"Prince Baltasar Carlos with a Dwarf" is held in high esteem for its historical value and artistic merit, offering insight into the courtly life of Habsburg Spain and the development of Velázquez's portraiture. The painting is part of the collection of the Museo del Prado in Madrid, where it remains an important piece for both art historians and the general public, illustrating the young prince's status and the court's fascination with dwarfs as symbols of both affection and entertainment.
