János Miklós Vaszary (30 November 1867 – 19 April 1939) was a Hungarian painter and graphic artist.

His art studies began at the Hungarian University of Fine Arts. In 1887, he went to Munich. After seeing an exhibition of paintings by Jules Bastien-Lepage, he moved to Paris in 1899 and enrolled at the Académie Julian. Although he later became involved with Simon Hollósy and the artists' colony in Nagybánya and developed an interest in Hungarian folk art, his primary influences would always be French.

During World War I, he served as a correspondent on the Serbian front and his imagery became more dramatic but, after another visit to Paris, he returned to his Impressionist tendencies. From 1920 until his retirement in 1932, he served as a professor at his alma mater, the University of Fine Arts. More on János Miklós Vaszary
