Master of the Brunswick Diptych is a Northern Renaissance painter. 5 works are cataloged here, principally at Rijksmuseum, most of them oil paintings.

Master of the Brunswick Diptych is the conventional name given to an anonymous Early Netherlandish painter active in Haarlem in the northern Netherlands around 1480 to 1500. The name derives from a small devotional diptych now in the Herzog Anton Ulrich Museum in Brunswick (Braunschweig), Germany. The artist worked in the tradition of Haarlem panel painting associated with Geertgen tot Sint Jans, producing religious subjects in oil on panel with restrained colour and carefully observed figures.

A modest group of works has been gathered under the name on grounds of style, though the painter's true identity remains unknown.
