The Portrait of a Young Man is an oil-on-panel painting by the Italian Renaissance painter Lorenzo Lotto, executed ca. 1506 and housed in the Uffizi Gallery, Florence, Italy.

The work was part of cardinal Leopoldo de' Medici's collection, after he had bought it from the Cornaro family. In a 1675 inventory it is mentioned as a Raphael work, and was associated with Lotto only in 1910.

Lorenzo Lotto was an Italian painter, draughtsman, and illustrator, traditionally placed in the Venetian school, though much of his career was spent in other north Italian cities. He painted mainly altarpieces, religious subjects and portraits. He was active during the High Renaissance and the first half of the Mannerist period, but his work maintained a generally similar High Renaissance style throughout his career, although his nervous and eccentric posings and distortions represented a transitional stage to the Florentine and Roman Mannerists.
