"Carolus-Duran" is an 1879 oil on canvas portrait by the American expatriate artist John Singer Sargent, depicting the French painter and Sargent's influential teacher, Charles Auguste Émile Durand, known as Carolus-Duran. The portrait stands as a testament to the profound impact Carolus-Duran had on Sargent's development as a painter. It was created during Sargent's early years in Paris when he was studying under Carolus-Duran, whose teachings emphasized the importance of working quickly and capturing the essence of the sitter with bold brushwork and a vibrant palette.

The painting showcases Sargent's technical prowess and his ability to capture the character and sophistication of his subject. Carolus-Duran is portrayed with a confident gaze and an elegant pose, reflecting his status as a celebrated artist and a fashionable society figure of his time. The portrait is noted for its loose brushwork, a hallmark of Sargent's style, which he adopted from his mentor's approach to painting. The composition's bravura and the psychological insight into the sitter's personality are indicative of Sargent's skill in portraiture that would later earn him international acclaim.

The artwork measures 46 x 37 1/2 inches (116.8 x 95.3 cm) and is part of the collection at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Massachusetts. "Carolus-Duran" is not only a significant piece in Sargent's oeuvre but also an important historical document that captures the relationship between a master and his pupil, serving as a bridge between traditional academic training and the emerging impressionist movement that Sargent would eventually be associated with. The portrait is often cited as a key work in understanding the evolution of Sargent's artistic style and his early influences.
