"Portrait of Robert Burns (1759–96) 1795–96" is an oil painting by the Scottish artist Alexander Nasmyth (1758–1840), not Alexander Reid. Nasmyth's portrait of Robert Burns, the national poet of Scotland, is one of the most iconic images of the poet. Completed posthumously in 1795 or 1796, the painting is based on an earlier portrait for which Burns sat in person in 1787. Nasmyth's depiction of Burns has become the definitive representation of the poet, often reproduced and referenced in various media.

The portrait shows Burns in a pastoral setting, which is fitting given his famous love of nature and his background as a farmer. Burns is depicted in three-quarter profile against a background of a Scottish landscape, which includes a view of the River Ayr. The setting reflects the Romantic ideal of nature and the individual's connection to the land, themes that are prevalent in Burns' poetry.

Nasmyth's portrait is celebrated for its ability to capture the spirit and character of Robert Burns. The poet's gaze is often noted for its contemplative and visionary quality, which aligns with the intellectual and emotional depth found in his literary works. The painting is also significant for its role in shaping the public's visual memory of Burns, contributing to his mythologization as Scotland's beloved bard.

The original painting is held in the collection of the Scottish National Portrait Gallery in Edinburgh, where it is frequently on display. It remains an important cultural artifact, not only for its artistic merit but also for its deep association with Scottish identity and the enduring legacy of Robert Burns' poetry.
