"Portrait of the Poet James Thomson" (Swedish: Porträtt Föreställande Poeten James Thomson) is a notable work by the Scottish painter Allan Ramsay (1713–1784). Created in the 18th century, this portrait immortalizes James Thomson (1700–1748), a Scottish poet and playwright, best known for his masterpiece "The Seasons," a series of four long poems that mark a significant shift towards nature poetry in the English literary tradition. Ramsay, who was not only a leading portraitist of his day but also a contemporary and acquaintance of Thomson, brings a personal and insightful touch to the portrayal of the poet.

Allan Ramsay's artistic style, characterized by its elegance, realism, and attention to detail, is evident in this portrait. He captures Thomson in a moment of contemplation, possibly alluding to the poet's deep connection with nature and his reflective, introspective nature. The painting is a testament to Ramsay's skill in rendering the textures of fabrics and the subtleties of facial expressions, contributing to a vivid and lifelike representation.

This work holds significance not only for its artistic merit but also for its contribution to the cultural and literary history of Scotland. It serves as a visual document of the Enlightenment in Scotland, a period marked by an explosion of intellectual and artistic activity, with Edinburgh at its heart. Ramsay and Thomson were both key figures in this Scottish Enlightenment, and their friendship and mutual respect are encapsulated in this portrait.

"Portrait of the Poet James Thomson" is an important piece in the oeuvre of Allan Ramsay, offering insights into the artist's technique, the subject's personality, and the broader cultural context of 18th-century Scotland. It remains a valuable asset for scholars and enthusiasts of Scottish art, literature, and history, providing a window into the life and times of two of Scotland's most celebrated figures.
