Carleton Wiggins (1848 - ) was an American landscape and cattle painter. He was born in Orange Co., N. Y., and studied in New York at the National Academy of Design and with George Inness, and in Paris, and settled in New York.

* "Cattle in Pond" (Brooklyn Museum)
* "Sheep and Landscape" (Brooklyn Museum)
* "Lake and Mountains" (Art Institute, Chicago)
* "Moonrise on the Lake" (Art Institute, Chicago)
* "October" (Corcoran Art Gallery, Washington)
* "Evening after a Shower" (National Gallery, Washington)
* "The Plow Horse" (Lotos Club, New York)

Wiggins was elected to the National Academy of Design in 1906. For his son, see Guy Carleton Wiggins.
