"Portrait of Carolus-Duran" is an oil painting by the American expatriate artist John Singer Sargent, completed in 1879. The work is a tribute to Sargent's teacher, the French painter and sculptor Charles Auguste Émile Durand, known as Carolus-Duran. The portrait is a testament to the profound influence Carolus-Duran had on Sargent's early development as an artist.

The painting depicts Carolus-Duran in a three-quarter length pose, exuding an air of confidence and sophistication that is characteristic of Sargent's portraits. The subject is dressed in formal attire, his gaze fixed directly at the viewer, with a palette and brushes in hand, suggesting his profession and passion for art. The composition and brushwork reflect the academic style that Sargent was mastering under Carolus-Duran's tutelage, combined with a hint of the looser, more expressive technique that would come to define Sargent's mature work.

Measuring 46 1/2 x 39 1/2 inches (118.1 x 100.3 cm), the portrait is housed in the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Massachusetts. It was painted during Sargent's stay in Paris, where he studied at the École des Beaux-Arts and in Carolus-Duran's private atelier. The portrait is not only a personal homage but also an important work in Sargent's oeuvre, as it captures the artist's skillful rendering of character and his emerging individual style.

"Portrait of Carolus-Duran" is considered a significant piece in the history of American art and serves as a visual record of the mentor-student relationship that was central to the development of Sargent's career. The painting has been exhibited in various art institutions and has been analyzed in art historical literature for its technical and stylistic merits, as well as its role in the context of Sargent's life and work.
