John Francis Spenlove-Spenlove (24 February 1864 – 20 April 1933) was a Scottish landscape and figure painter.
One of his outstanding students was Ba Nyan, a penurious student from Burma who had been sent to England in 1921 to study at the Royal College of Art but soon switched to Spenlove's Yellow Door School where he could focus on oil painting.
When Ba Nyan returned permanently to Burma in 1930, he had a revolutionary impact on Burmese painting, introducing the techniques in Western painting which he had learned from Spenlove and other British painters such Frank Brangwyn.
