Henry Bright (5 June 1810 – 21 September 1873), was a distinguished English landscape painter associated with the Norwich School of painters.
Bright painted in various locations in England, Scotland, Wales and across Europe, working in oils, watercolour, chalk and pencil. During a few of these sketching expeditions he was accompanied by J. M. W. Turner, with whom he had struck up a friendship. Bright's work was also highly regarded by John Ruskin.

His professional success extended to working collaboratively with other artists, including John Frederick Herring and William Shayer, where Bright usually contributed the background. Throughout his career in London, Bright maintained links with the artists of the Norwich School of painters.

There is an extensive collection of Bright's paintings at the Norwich Castle Museum. He is also represented at major art galleries in London, Boston and San Francisco.
