Antonio Ciseri (October 25, 1821 – March 8, 1891) was an Italian academic artist.

Ciseri was born in Switzerland and trained in Florence under Niccola Benvenuti. His religious paintings are Raphaelesque in their compositional outlines and their polished surfaces, but are nearly photographic in effect. He fulfilled many important commissions from churches in Italy and Switzerland. Ciseri also painted a significant number of portraits.
