Jeanna Bauck (19 August 1840 – 27 May 1926) was a Swedish painter.

Bauck was born in Stockholm where she studied with another young woman who became a close friend, the Danish portrait painter Bertha Wegmann. Though she won awards for portraits, she is best known for her landscape paintings that she made on extensive travels in Europe.

She showed works at the 1893 Chicago World's Fair and her paintings Woodland Lake and Portrait of a man were included in the 1905 book Women Painters of the World.[1][2]

Bauck died in Munich, aged 85.
