"A Boy Holding a Portfolio" is an 18th-century oil painting by the French artist François-Hubert Drouais (1727–1775), who was renowned for his portraiture during the Rococo period. The painting is notable for its depiction of a young boy, elegantly dressed in the fashion of the time, holding a portfolio—a case for carrying loose papers or drawings. The subject's identity is not definitively known, which adds an element of mystery to the work.

The composition showcases Drouais's skill in capturing the textures of fabrics and the subtleties of color, as well as his ability to render the delicate features and expressions of children, which was one of his specialties. The boy's poised stance and direct gaze suggest a maturity beyond his years, while the portfolio may imply a connection to the arts or education.

Drouais was a prominent figure in French portraiture and studied under artists such as Charles-Joseph Natoire and François Boucher. His works were highly sought after by the aristocracy of his time, and he became the official portraitist for the French royal family. "A Boy Holding a Portfolio" reflects the artist's refined style and the cultural values of the French elite prior to the Revolution.

The painting is part of Drouais's body of work that contributes to our understanding of French art and society in the latter half of the 18th century. While the exact date of creation, provenance, and current location of "A Boy Holding a Portfolio" are not specified here, the painting remains a testament to Drouais's artistic legacy and the genre of portraiture during the Rococo period.
