The Shepherd Paris is a c.1628 painting by the Flemish artist Anthony van Dyck, dating to just after the artist's return from Italy and showing the strong influence of Titian.[2] It shows Paris during the Judgement of Paris, holding the golden apple he has been ordered to give to the most beautiful of three goddesses - unusually the artist focuses on Paris and does not show the goddesses themselves.

A painting of Paris recorded as owned by the marquis de Voyer d’Argenson in 1754 is probably to be identified with this work. It is now in the Wallace Collection.[3] It was acquired by Henry Hope prior to 1807 before being bought by Francis Charles Seymour-Conway, 3rd Marquess of Hertford when the Hope collection was sold at Christie's on 29 June 1816. At that time, it was thought to be a self-portrait of van Dyck himself. The Marquess intended to bequeath the painting to George IV but he outlived the king and was unable to do so.

Le Berger Pâris est une peinture réalisée vers 1628 par l'artiste flamand Antoine van Dyck, juste après son retour d'Italie et montrant la forte influence du Titien[1]. Il représente le personnage de la mythologie grecque Pâris, lors de l'épisode appelé le Jugement de Pâris, tenant la pomme d'or qu'il a reçu l'ordre de donner à la plus belle des trois déesses ; exceptionnellement l'artiste se concentre sur Pâris et ne montre pas les déesses elles-mêmes. La toile est conservée à la Wallace Collection à Londres.
