"Portrait of a Boy" is a painting by Sir Peter Lely, a notable portrait artist of the 17th century who became the Principal Painter to Charles II. Lely, born Pieter van der Faes, was of Dutch origin but spent most of his career in England, where he gained fame for his portraits of the English aristocracy, particularly those of the court of Charles II. His style was heavily influenced by the works of Anthony van Dyck, and he became known for his ability to capture the elegance and opulence of the Restoration period.

The painting "Portrait of a Boy" is an example of Lely's skill in depicting the youth of the English upper classes. While the exact identity of the boy in the painting is often not specified, the work is characteristic of Lely's portraiture with its attention to detail, rich color palette, and the relaxed, yet aristocratic pose of the subject. The boy is typically dressed in the fashion of the time, which may include luxurious fabrics and lace, indicating his social status.

As with many of Lely's portraits, "Portrait of a Boy" would likely have been commissioned by the family of the subject as a means of showcasing their wealth and position. The painting would have served both as a personal memento and a public display of status. Lely's portraits are celebrated for their combination of realism and idealization, capturing both the physical likeness and the desired impression of the sitter.

"Portrait of a Boy" by Sir Peter Lely is held in various collections, and like many of his works, it exemplifies the courtly and sophisticated style that dominated English portraiture during the latter half of the 17th century. The painting is a testament to Lely's legacy as one of the most influential portrait painters of his time, whose works have contributed significantly to the visual documentation of the English Restoration era.
