"Abraham Renstirna Dressed as a Lapp and his Reindeer" is a notable 17th-century portrait painting by the Swedish artist David Klocker Ehrenstrahl. Created in 1695, this work is part of Ehrenstrahl's broader oeuvre, which is characterized by his mastery of Baroque portraiture and his role as a leading court painter in Sweden during the reign of King Charles XI. The painting is significant for its depiction of Abraham Renstirna, a notable figure in Swedish history, dressed in the traditional garb of the Sámi people, an indigenous group from the northern parts of Sweden, Norway, Finland, and the Kola Peninsula of Russia.

The portrait is particularly remarkable for its cultural and historical context, as it provides insight into the relationship between the Swedish state and the Sámi people during the period. Renstirna, who is shown with a reindeer, symbolizes the connection between the Sámi lifestyle and their environment, as reindeer herding is a central aspect of their traditional livelihood.

The artwork is not only a testament to Ehrenstrahl's skill as a portraitist but also serves as a visual document of the era's costumes and the social hierarchy.

The painting's current location and ownership, as well as its exhibition history, are relevant to its appreciation and study.
