"Scenes from Tam O'Shanter" is a series of paintings by the 19th-century Scottish artist William Carse, inspired by the narrative poem "Tam O'Shanter" written by the celebrated Scottish poet Robert Burns in 1790. Carse, known for his genre scenes and historical subjects, vividly brought to life the supernatural and rustic elements of Burns's poem, which tells the story of Tam, a farmer who encounters a coven of witches and warlocks during a stormy night.

The series captures key moments from the poem, including the raucous scene at the inn where Tam has been drinking, his perilous journey home on horseback, and the dramatic climax where Tam witnesses the witches' dance and is subsequently chased by them. Carse's work is noted for its attention to detail, use of color, and ability to convey the eerie atmosphere and moralistic undertones of the original poem.

While the exact number of paintings in the series and their current whereabouts are not well-documented, "Scenes from Tam O'Shanter" is considered an important contribution to the visual interpretation of Scottish literature and folklore. The paintings are a testament to the enduring influence of Burns's poetry and the fascination with Scottish cultural identity during the 19th century, a period marked by a resurgence of interest in the country's history and legends.

William Carse's artistic interpretation of "Tam O'Shanter" remains significant for its portrayal of Scottish life and the supernatural, reflecting the Romantic era's preoccupation with emotion, nature, and the macabre. The series is of interest to scholars of both art history and Scottish literature, as it provides insight into the ways in which visual art can expand upon and enhance the narrative of a literary text.
