Yan Wenliang (Chinese: 顏文樑; 20 July 1893 – 1 May 1988) was a Chinese painter and educator, who is regarded as one of the fathers of Chinese oil painting and an important art educator of his time. Born in Suzhou, Jiangsu province, Yan began studying painting in 1909, founded the Suzhou Art Academy along with Zhu Shijie in 1922 and went to Paris in 1929, enrolling in the Ecole Superieure Nationale des Beaux Arts, making him, along with Xu Beihong and Sanyu, one of the earliest Chinese artists to study abroad in France. He was one of the four pioneers of Chinese modern art who earned the title of 'The Four Great Academy Presidents'.

颜文樑,字栋臣,江苏苏州人,中国画家,教育家,中国第一代油画开拓者,中国现代绘画的奠基人之一,与徐悲鸿、林风眠和刘海粟并称“四大校长”。颜文樑与朱士杰、胡粹中创办苏州美术专科学校并在1927年建立苏州美术馆。颜文樑于1928年前往法国巴黎高等美术专科学校学习,并在1932年回国后历任苏州美专校长、中央大学美术系主任、中央美术院华东分院院长、浙江美术学院副院长及中央美术学院教授等职务,在教育领地上开疆拓土。颜文樑的作品着重写实精神,善于以西方的表现手法融以东方的审美和民族精神,创造了独特的艺术风格,是中国现代写实主义绘画的代表。
