"Portrait of the Painter Franz Pforr" is an oil painting by the German artist Johann Friedrich Overbeck, created in 1810. The painting is a significant work of the Nazarene movement, a group of early 19th-century Romantic painters who aimed to revive honesty and spirituality in Christian art. Overbeck, a central figure in this movement, was both a colleague and a close friend of Franz Pforr, the subject of the portrait.

The portrait depicts Pforr with a serene expression, set against a landscape backdrop that reflects the Nazarenes' appreciation for nature and their inspiration from medieval art. Overbeck's portrayal of Pforr is notable for its detailed rendering and the emotional depth it conveys, capturing the character and sensitivity of the fellow artist. The painting is also an important historical document, as Pforr died young at the age of 24, making this one of the few contemporary visual records of him.

Measuring 61 x 47.5 cm, the portrait is housed in the Städel Museum in Frankfurt, Germany. It is a testament to the friendship and mutual respect between Overbeck and Pforr, and it stands as a representation of the ideals and aesthetics of the Nazarene movement. The work is characterized by its fine brushwork, subdued color palette, and the fusion of personal intimacy with a broader cultural and spiritual vision, which were hallmarks of Overbeck's artistic philosophy.
