Robert McGowan Coventry or Robert McGown Coventry (1855 – 1914) was a Scottish painter born in Glasgow.

He studied at Glasgow School of Art under Robert Greenlees and in Paris. Although he traveled much to the continent and the Middle east, many of his paintings depict quayside and highland scenes from Eastern Scotland. He used the signature "R M G COVENTRY".

In 1889 he became member of the RSW and in 1906 he was elected associate of the Royal Scottish Academy.[1]
