Yes, "one-of-a-kind" is hyphenated when used as a compound adjective before a noun, such as in "one-of-a-kind portrait." The hyphens clarify that the phrase functions together as a single descriptor. However, if it appears after the noun, it typically does not need hyphenation, as in "This portrait is one of a kind."
