George Richmond (March 28, 1809March 19, 1896) was an English painter.

His early work was much inspired by William Blake, and, with Samuel Palmer and Edward Calvert, he was a member of the Blake-influenced group known as "The Ancients". This influence faded in later life, when he produced relatively conventional portraits.

George Richmond was the father of the painter William Blake Richmond and grandfather of the naval historian, Admiral Sir Herbert Richmond.
