"Ruth" is a painting by the Scottish artist Robert Scott Lauder (1803–1869), completed in 1853. The artwork is a representation of the biblical figure Ruth from the Book of Ruth in the Hebrew Bible and Christian Old Testament. Lauder, a prominent figure in the Scottish art scene of the 19th century, was known for his religious, historical, and genre paintings, and "Ruth" is a prime example of his work in the religious genre.

The painting depicts Ruth, a Moabite woman who became an ancestor of King David and, according to Christian tradition, of Jesus Christ. The narrative of Ruth, who is known for her loyalty and devotion to her mother-in-law Naomi after the death of her husband, has been a subject of artistic inspiration for centuries. Lauder's interpretation of Ruth is notable for its portrayal of her humility and virtue, qualities that have made her story resonate through the ages.

Lauder's "Ruth" is characterized by its fine detail, rich color palette, and the emotional depth conveyed through Ruth's expression and posture. The painting reflects Lauder's academic training and his exposure to the work of the Old Masters during his travels in Europe, particularly in Italy. As a leading member of the Edinburgh School, Lauder played a significant role in the development of Scottish art in the Victorian era, and his works, including "Ruth," contributed to the era's appreciation of biblical and literary subjects.

The painting is part of the collection of the National Galleries of Scotland, where it is valued not only for its artistic merit but also for its cultural and historical significance. "Ruth" by Robert Scott Lauder remains an important work for scholars studying religious iconography in art as well as for those interested in the history of Scottish painting.
