"Alexander MacKenzie" is an oil on canvas portrait by Sir Thomas Lawrence, a leading English portrait painter of the Regency era. The painting depicts Alexander MacKenzie (1764–1820), the Scottish explorer known for his significant expeditions in Canada, including his overland crossing of what is now Canada to reach the Pacific Ocean in 1793, which was the first recorded east to west crossing of North America north of Mexico. MacKenzie was knighted for his efforts in mapping the vast territories of North America.

The portrait by Lawrence is a testament to MacKenzie's status and the recognition of his achievements. Sir Thomas Lawrence was renowned for his ability to capture the character and social standing of his sitters, and his portrait of MacKenzie would likely have been no exception. Lawrence's portraits are characterized by their sophisticated elegance and the psychological insight he brought to his depiction of sitters. His work was highly sought after by the aristocracy and the upper echelons of British society during his lifetime.

The painting would have been commissioned to honor MacKenzie's accomplishments and to ensure his legacy. As with many of Lawrence's portraits, the artwork would have been designed to convey the sitter's importance and character. The portrait's current location, ownership, and history of exhibition, however, are not specified in this introduction, as that information is not provided.

As an artist, Sir Thomas Lawrence (1769–1830) was President of the Royal Academy and became the painter to King George III. His legacy includes some of the most iconic portraits of the British Regency period, with works displayed in major galleries and collections worldwide. The portrait of Alexander MacKenzie would contribute to the visual historical record of influential figures of the 18th and early 19th centuries, capturing the likeness and spirit of a man who played a pivotal role in the exploration and mapping of Canada.
