"Portrait of Juliette Courbet" is an oil painting by the French artist Gustave Courbet, completed in 1844. It depicts the artist's younger sister, Juliette Courbet, and is one of the early works that showcase Courbet's burgeoning realist style. The painting is significant for its portrayal of a familial subject with a directness and simplicity that was characteristic of Courbet's approach to art.

In the portrait, Juliette is depicted in a three-quarter view against a dark, nondescript background. Her expression is serene and contemplative, with her gaze directed slightly away from the viewer. The subdued palette and the delicate rendering of her features reflect the artist's focus on capturing the natural appearance of his sitter, eschewing the idealization and embellishment common in portraiture of the era.

The painting is not only a personal representation of Courbet's sister but also an example of the artist's commitment to realism, which he would continue to develop throughout his career. Courbet's emphasis on painting everyday people and scenes as they appeared made him a pivotal figure in the Realist movement, which sought to challenge the conventions of the Romantic and Neoclassical styles that dominated French art at the time.

"Portrait of Juliette Courbet" is held in the collection of the Petit Palais, Musée des Beaux-Arts de la Ville de Paris. The work is often studied for its contribution to the early development of Realism in art and for its insight into Courbet's personal life and artistic influences.
