"Portrait of Benedikt von Hertenstein 1517" is a notable work by the German artist Hans Holbein the Younger, painted in 1517. This portrait depicts Benedikt von Hertenstein, the son of a prominent Lucerne magistrate, Jakob von Hertenstein. The painting is executed in oil and tempera on limewood, a common medium for Holbein, and measures 43.5 cm by 32.7 cm. It is currently housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York.

The portrait is particularly significant for its detailed representation and the insight it provides into the fashion and identity of the Swiss elite during the early 16th century. Holbein's mastery in capturing the textures of materials and the subtleties of human expression is evident in this work. The young von Hertenstein is portrayed wearing a lavish black and gold costume, with a landscape visible in the background, which was a typical stylistic element in Holbein's portraits. This painting not only showcases Holbein's skill as a portraitist but also serves as a valuable historical document, reflecting the social and cultural milieu of the period.
