"Portrait of Count Stroganov as a Child" is an 18th-century oil painting by the French artist Jean-Baptiste Greuze (1725–1805), who was renowned for his portraiture and genre paintings that often carried moral themes. This particular work is notable for its depiction of Pavel Alexandrovich Stroganov, a member of the prominent and affluent Stroganov family, who were influential figures in Russian history, known for their patronage of the arts and their role in the development of Russian culture.

Created in 1778, the portrait is an exemplar of Greuze's skill in capturing the innocence and charm of childhood, a theme that resonated with Enlightenment ideals of nature and virtue. The young count is portrayed with an endearing directness, his gaze meeting the viewer's, which was a distinctive feature of Greuze's portraiture. The artist's mastery in rendering the textures of fabrics and the softness of the child's skin contributes to the lifelike quality of the painting.

The work is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its historical context, as it reflects the interconnectedness of European aristocracy and the cultural exchanges between France and Russia during the period. The portrait of Count Stroganov as a child is a testament to the cosmopolitan nature of the European elite in the late 18th century and serves as a document of the Stroganov family's status and their engagement with prominent artists of the time.

Held in high esteem for its aesthetic qualities and its representation of youthful nobility, "Portrait of Count Stroganov as a Child" remains an important work within Greuze's oeuvre and continues to be studied for its contribution to the portraiture genre and its reflection of the social and cultural dynamics of the era. The painting is housed in a notable museum collection, further cementing its status as a significant piece of art history.
