Stevenson Memorial is a painting by American artist Abbott Handerson Thayer, completed in 1903 as a tribute to the Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson. The artwork is a symbolic representation rather than a literal portrait, reflecting Thayer's interest in idealized figures and his belief in the spiritual and ethereal qualities of art. The painting features an angelic figure, which serves as an allegory for Stevenson's spirit or muse, rather than a direct depiction of Stevenson himself. This figure is set against a muted, harmonious background that emphasizes a sense of peace and transcendence.

Thayer, known for his ethereal and idealistic approach to portraiture, uses soft, diffused lighting and a limited color palette in the Stevenson Memorial to evoke a sense of sanctity and reverence. The artwork was created as a posthumous homage to Stevenson, who had died in 1894, and reflects the profound impact that Stevenson's literary works had on Thayer and the broader artistic community. Today, the painting is appreciated not only for its aesthetic and emotional depth but also as a representation of the intersection between visual art and literature at the turn of the 20th century. The Stevenson Memorial is held in the collection of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, highlighting its significance in American art history.
