Abstract: We prove a sharp Schwarz type inequality for the Weierstrass- Enneper representation of the minimal surfaces. It states the following. If $F:mathbfDoSigma$ is a conformal harmonic parameterization of a minimal disk $Sigma$, where $mathbfD$ is the unit disk and $|Sigma|=pi{R}^2$, then $|F_x(z)|(1-|z{|}^2)leR$. If for some $z$ the previous inequality is equality, then the surface is an affine disk, and $F$ is linear up to a M"obius transformation of the unit disk.
