"Portrait of a Boy Holding a Riding Whip" is a 19th-century painting by American artist William Matthew Prior (1806–1873), known for his work as a folk artist and portraitist. The painting is a fine example of Prior's artistry, showcasing his ability to capture the innocence and character of his young subject. In this portrait, the boy is depicted with a direct gaze, engaging the viewer, while holding a riding whip, which may suggest aspects of his social status or interests.

William Matthew Prior, active during a period of American art where folk art traditions were giving way to more academic and European styles, managed to bridge the gap between folk art and the emerging portrait traditions. His work is characterized by a straightforward realism combined with a certain naive charm that is typical of folk art of the era.

"Portrait of a Boy Holding a Riding Whip" reflects Prior's attention to detail and his skill in rendering the textures and colors of the boy's attire, as well as the whip that serves as the painting's focal accessory. The work is also notable for its historical context, as it provides insight into the clothing and objects associated with children of the period.

The painting is part of a larger body of work by Prior that includes portraits of both adults and children, often highlighting the social and cultural milieu of his subjects. As with many of Prior's portraits, this painting is appreciated not only for its aesthetic qualities but also for its contribution to the understanding of American folk art and the society in which the artist lived and worked.
