Helene Louise Elizabeth de Mecklembourg Schwerin, Duchess D'Orleans with Prince Louis Philippe Albert D'Orleans, Comte de Paris is a notable painting by the 19th-century German artist Franz Xaver Winterhalter, renowned for his portraits of European aristocracy. Created in 1839, this artwork captures the Duchess of Orléans, born Princess Helena of Mecklenburg-Schwerin (1814–1858), alongside her son, Prince Louis Philippe Albert (1838–1894), who would later become the Count of Paris.

The painting is a testament to Winterhalter's skill in portraying his subjects with elegance and a sense of their aristocratic status, while also conveying a sense of intimacy and maternal affection. The Duchess is depicted in a sumptuous gown, indicative of her royal standing, while the young Count of Paris is shown in a child's dress of the period, looking up at his mother. The composition and the tender interaction between mother and child reflect the conventions of royal portraiture, as well as the personal narrative of the sitters.

Helene Louise Elizabeth de Mecklembourg Schwerin was the wife of Ferdinand Philippe, Duke of Orléans, eldest son of King Louis-Philippe of France. Her life was marked by her involvement in French politics and her role as a mother of a future pretender to the French throne. The painting gains historical significance as it was created during the July Monarchy, a period of liberal constitutional monarchy in France, and just a year after the birth of Prince Louis Philippe Albert.

Franz Xaver Winterhalter, the artist, was one of the most sought-after portraitists of his time, and his works are characterized by their refined brushwork, sophisticated use of color, and the ability to capture the likeness and personality of his sitters. This painting is one of many royal portraits that cemented Winterhalter's reputation as a master portraitist in the courts of Europe.

The painting is not only a work of art but also a historical document that offers insight into the French monarchy of the time, the role of women in the royal family, and the representation of royal children. It remains an important piece in the oeuvre of Winterhalter and a valuable artifact of 19th-century European history.
