Portrait of Joseph Bonaparte is an 1808 portrait painting by the French artist François Gérard. It depicts Joseph Bonaparte, recently created King of Spain, in his coronation robes. Joseph, the elder brother of Napoleon, had been King of Naples until he had been placed on the throne of Spain which triggered the Peninsular War.

Gérard, a neoclassical painter and pupil of Jacques-Louis David, produced a number of depictions of the extended Bonaparte dynasty. Today the painting is in the collection of the Palace of Fontainebleau outside Paris, having been acquired in 1981.
