"Portrait of a Boy (c. 1638)" is a sculptural artwork attributed to Gian Lorenzo Bernini, the preeminent Baroque artist known for his mastery in both sculpture and architecture. This work is believed to have been created around 1638, during a period when Bernini was at the height of his artistic powers and receiving numerous commissions from patrons across Europe, including the papacy.

The portrait is a bust, a common form for personal portraiture in the Baroque period, which captures the likeness and character of a young boy. The identity of the boy is not definitively known, which adds an element of mystery to the work. Bernini's skill in rendering the textures of skin and hair, as well as his ability to convey the psychological presence of his sitters, is evident in this piece. The sculpture is noted for its lifelike quality and the sensitive portrayal of youth, with a particular attention to the subtleties of facial expression that suggest the inner life of the subject.

As with many of Bernini's portraits, "Portrait of a Boy" demonstrates the artist's innovative approach to the medium. Bernini's technique involved a dynamic interplay of light and shadow, which helped to animate the surface of his sculptures and create a sense of immediacy. The work is an example of the shift in art from the Renaissance focus on idealized forms to the Baroque emphasis on emotion, movement, and realism.

"Portrait of a Boy (c. 1638)" is an important work within Bernini's oeuvre, offering insight into his lesser-known portraiture of private individuals, as opposed to his more famous public commissions. It reflects the broader cultural and artistic trends of the 17th century, including the growing interest in the individual and the naturalistic representation of human figures. The sculpture remains an object of study for art historians and a testament to Bernini's enduring legacy in the history of art.
