Francis Day (1863 - 1925) was an American artist, whose paintings may be found in many private and public collections, largely in the United States of America.

A number of his paintings have been offered for sale by auction in recent years, including "Light of Love" (Butterfields 1999), "Woman with a Harp" (Phillips of New York, 2000), and "The Critic" (Sotheby's of New York, 2004), the last named being a well-known painting, whose 'critic' is in fact a small girl listening to her mother playing the piano.
