Jean or Jane Adam, Mrs Kennedy of Dunure is a 1811 oil by Henry Raeburn, held at National Galleries Scotland.
This portrait features a woman seated in a red chair, wearing a green dress with a white shawl draped over her shoulders. The background is dark, with a red curtain and a painting of a castle on the right side. The woman's attire and the style of the painting suggest an early 19th-century setting. The use of oil paint and the attention to detail in the subject's clothing and the background are notable aspects of the artwork.
