Albert John Hanson (28 September 1867 – 11 July 1914) was an Australian artist, winner of the 1905 Wynne Prize.
In 1889 Hanson went to New Zealand and founded an art school at Dunedin but returned to Sydney after a short stay.
In 1892 The Low Lispings of the Silvery Waves, a water colour, was purchased by the Sydney gallery, and later that year Hanson went to London.
Hanson returned to Sydney in 1896, and in 1898 his Pacific Beaches, an oil, was purchased for the National Gallery of Australia.
Hanson was an able landscape painter in both oil and water-colour and is represented in the Sydney, Adelaide, Brisbane, Geelong, Wellington, Auckland, Dunedin, and Christchurch galleries.
