Robert Burns, Bronze sculpture in Burns Commons, Milwaukee, United States.

The monument represents Robert Burns standing upright on a Nova Scotia pink granite plinth with bronze bas relief panels at Burns Commons.

James A Bryden, a Scottish immigrant involved in Milwaukee grain trade, presented the statue to the city during a ceremony on June 26, 1909.

The Saint Andrew's Society organizes annual wreath-laying ceremonies near January 25 at the monument to commemorate Robert Burns's birthday.
