Robert Burns Memorial, Bronze sculpture in Central Park, United States.
The Robert Burns Memorial features a bronze figure of the Scottish poet seated on a tree stump, holding a quill pen and gazing upward.
The memorial, inaugurated in 1880, stands as the first statue of Robert Burns erected outside Scotland, funded by the Saint Andrew's Society.
The monument represents Scottish literary heritage in America through the detailed portrayal of Scotland's national poet by sculptor John Steell.
Visitors can reach the memorial through multiple paved pathways in Central Park, with benches nearby offering spots for reading and reflection.
The statue mirrors three identical bronze castings located in Dundee, London, and Dunedin, forming a global network of Burns tributes.
