"Prince Charles Edward Stuart (1720-88) or 'Bonnie Prince Charlie'" is an oil painting by the Scottish portrait artist Cosmo Alexander, created in 1745. The painting is a significant historical artifact as it depicts Charles Edward Stuart, commonly known as Bonnie Prince Charlie, who was a prominent figure in the Jacobite uprising of 1745. The uprising aimed to restore the Stuart dynasty to the British throne, and Bonnie Prince Charlie was at the heart of this movement as the claimant to the thrones of England, Scotland, and Ireland.

The portrait is notable for its representation of the young prince at the time of his greatest challenge and before his eventual defeat at the Battle of Culloden in 1746. Cosmo Alexander, a Jacobite sympathizer himself, captures the romanticized image of the prince, which played a crucial role in the iconography of the Jacobite cause. The painting features Charles Edward Stuart in military attire, with the sash and star of the Order of the Garter, emphasizing his royal claim and the legitimacy of his cause.

This artwork is not only a piece of portraiture but also a historical document that reflects the political and cultural sentiments of the time. It has been referenced in various historical texts and exhibitions that discuss the Jacobite risings and the role of art in political propaganda. The painting is an example of Alexander's skill in capturing the likeness and character of his subjects, contributing to his reputation as a leading portraitist in 18th-century Scotland.
