"Portrait Présumé de la Comtesse du Barry" is an artwork attributed to Élisabeth Louise Vigée Le Brun, a prominent 18th-century French portraitist known for her work during the ancien régime. The painting is believed to depict Jeanne Bécu, Comtesse du Barry (1743–1793), the last maîtresse-en-titre of King Louis XV of France and a notable figure at the court of Versailles.

The portrait is executed in the Rococo style, which was popular during the late 18th century, characterized by soft pastel colors, graceful figures, and a light, decorative approach. Vigée Le Brun's skill in capturing the elegance and sophistication of her subjects is evident in this work, which showcases her ability to convey the opulence and delicate beauty associated with the French aristocracy of the time.

The presumed identification of the sitter as the Comtesse du Barry, however, is not without controversy. While the painting shares similarities with other known depictions of du Barry, the lack of definitive documentation or provenance linking the portrait to her has led to ongoing scholarly debate. The artwork's attribution to Vigée Le Brun is also based on stylistic analysis and comparison with her authenticated portraits, as direct historical records connecting the artist to this specific painting are scarce.

Despite these uncertainties, "Portrait Présumé de la Comtesse du Barry" remains an important work within the oeuvre of Élisabeth Vigée Le Brun and an insightful representation of the French nobility prior to the Revolution. The painting is not only significant for its artistic merit but also for its potential historical value, offering a glimpse into the life and image of one of the most intriguing women of 18th-century France.
