"Scottish Girl" is a painting by the American artist William Cogswell (1819–1903), known for his portraits of notable figures in the 19th century. The work is a depiction of a young girl in traditional Scottish attire, capturing the cultural dress and romanticized view of Scotland that was prevalent during the Victorian era. The painting is characterized by its detailed rendering of the girl's costume, including tartan patterns and accessories that signify Scottish heritage. Cogswell's use of color and light emphasizes the youthful innocence and charm of the subject, while also showcasing his skill in fabric representation and portraiture.

As a portrait painter, Cogswell gained recognition for his ability to capture the likeness and personality of his subjects, which ranged from presidents to everyday individuals. "Scottish Girl" is an example of his work outside the realm of commissioned portraits, reflecting a common 19th-century fascination with ethnic costumes and the exotic appeal of foreign cultures. The painting's date of creation is not well-documented, making it difficult to place within Cogswell's oeuvre, but it is consistent with the style and themes of his mid-to-late career.

The provenance of "Scottish Girl" and its current location are not widely known, and the painting has not been the subject of significant scholarly attention. As such, it remains a lesser-known piece within Cogswell's body of work. However, it contributes to the understanding of 19th-century American portraiture and the cultural exchanges between the United States and the United Kingdom during that period. The painting may be of interest to those studying the representation of cultural identity in art and the ways in which national dress has been romanticized and depicted by artists from different countries.
