George Bristow (1727 - 1815) is a 1750 oil by Allan Ramsay, a Rococo painting work, held at National Galleries Scotland.
This portrait features a man in an 18th-century-style outfit, standing in front of a green wall. He wears a light-colored jacket with buttons down the front, a white shirt, and a patterned waistcoat. His right arm is bent at the elbow, and his hand is held out in front of him. To his left is a large, ornate vase or urn on a pedestal. The background is a muted green color, with some darker shadows visible behind the subject. The painting's style and composition are reminiscent of works by Scottish portrait painter Allan Ramsay.
