"Portrait Said to Be of Jean-François-Paul de Gondi, Cardinal de Retz (1613–1679), Three-Quarter-Length" is a notable work by the French Baroque painter Pierre Mignard, also known as Pierre Le Romain I Mignard. This portrait is believed to depict the influential French churchman, writer, and political agitator Cardinal de Retz, who played a significant role during the Fronde, a series of civil wars in France between 1648 and 1653. The painting is executed in a three-quarter-length format, a common choice for portraiture of the era, which allows for a detailed representation of the subject's visage and attire, as well as a glimpse into their social status and personality.

Pierre Mignard (1612–1695) was a prominent painter in the court of Louis XIV and is renowned for his portraits of the French nobility and royalty. His style is characterized by a refined elegance and a skillful rendering of his subjects, often imbued with a sense of grace and nobility. The portrait in question is a testament to Mignard's mastery in capturing the likeness and character of his sitters.

While the painting's title suggests that it is a representation of Cardinal de Retz, it is important to note that the attribution and identification of the subject may be based on historical references or stylistic analysis, and the definitive verification of the sitter's identity might be a subject of scholarly debate. The artwork is a significant piece within Mignard's oeuvre and offers insight into the artistic conventions and societal figures of 17th-century France.

The portrait's composition, use of color, and the depiction of textiles and textures showcase Mignard's skill in portraying the opulence and complexity of the period's fashion, as well as his ability to convey the psychological depth of the sitter. The painting not only serves as a visual record of a historical figure but also reflects the cultural and political milieu of the time. As such, it holds value for both art historians and those interested in the history of France during the age of the Sun King, Louis XIV.
