Robert Burns (Steell)
''Robert Burns'' is a bronze portrait statue of Robert Burns by John Steell. Four versions exist, in New York City, Dundee, London, and Dunedin.
==New York statue==
The memorial sculpture in Manhattan's Central Park was cast ca. 1880 and dedicated on October 2, 1880. It was the first statue of Burns to be erected outside Scotland and was a gift to the City of New York from Saint Andrew's Society of the State of New York and the Scottish-American community. For this sculpture Steell closely followed the portrait of Burns painted by Alexander Nasmyth in 1787. Seated on a tree stump with a quill pen in one hand, Burns looks up to heaven. He is thinking of his true love Mary Campbell, who died at an early age. It was to her that he had written the poem "Highland Mary" inscribed on the scroll at his feet.
