Robert Seldon Duncanson (1 Januari 1821 – 21 Desember 1872) adalah lanskap Amerika abad ke-19 keturunan Eropa dan Afrika. Terinspirasi oleh seniman lanskap Amerika terkenal seperti Thomas Cole, Duncanson menciptakan lukisan pemandangan terkenal dan dianggap sebagai seniman generasi kedua Sekolah Sungai Hudson.^[1] Sebagai orang kulit hitam bebas di antebellum Amerika, Duncanson melibatkan komunitas abolitionist di Amerika dan Inggris untuk mendukung dan mempromosikan karyanya.^[2] Duncanson is considered the first African-American artist to be internationally known.^[2] Dia beroperasi di lingkaran budaya Cincinnati, Detroit, Montreal, dan London. Perdebatan sejarah seni rupa utama yang berpusat pada Duncanson menyangkut peran yang dimainkan oleh isu-isu rasial kontemporer dalam karyanya. Beberapa sejarawan seni, seperti Joseph D. Ketner, percaya bahwa Duncanson menggunakan metafora rasial dalam karya seninya,^[3] sementara yang lain, seperti Margaret Rose Vendryes, mencegah pemirsa mendekati karya seninya dengan perspektif rasial.^[4]
