"Portrait de René de Gas" is an early work by the renowned French artist Edgar Degas, painted circa 1855. This oil on canvas painting depicts the artist's younger brother, René de Gas, showcasing Degas's early exploration into portraiture and the influence of traditional academic training on his style. The portrait is characterized by its detailed realism and the use of lighting to accentuate the features of the subject, reflecting the conventions of the period and the influence of the Old Masters on Degas's technique.

Edgar Degas, born Hilaire-Germain-Edgar De Gas (1834–1917), is best known for his works depicting dancers and is often associated with the Impressionist movement, although he preferred to be called a realist. "Portrait de René de Gas" predates Degas's involvement with the Impressionists, illustrating his formative years when he was developing his artistic identity. The painting is significant for its demonstration of Degas's skill in rendering human likenesses and his ability to capture the psychological presence of his sitters, which would become a hallmark of his later portraits.

The artwork measures 81.3 x 65.4 cm (32 x 25 3/4 in.) and is part of the collection at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. It is an important piece within Degas's oeuvre as it provides insight into his early artistic development and the personal connections that shaped his career. The portrait remains a subject of interest for scholars studying the artist's early influences and the evolution of his distinctive style.
