York Art Gallery is a public art gallery located in the city of York, England. The gallery displays a collection of paintings ranging from the 14th century to the contemporary including prints, watercolors, drawings and ceramics. The gallery is managed by the York Museums Trust together with other museums and institutions located in the same city.

The York Art Gallery was born in 1879 from the need to have a permanent building as a space for Yorkshire's second exhibition of figurative and industrial art. After the event it was decided to keep the exhibition space as permanent. The initial collection benefited from a large donation, over one hundred paintings dating from the nineteenth century, left by John Burton. The City of York purchased the buildings and collection in 1892.

The gallery, following the damage suffered after the Second World War, reopened in 1948 and was restored between 1951 and 1952.

Today the gallery holds an important British collection of late 19th and early 20th century works. The collection also includes French works and ceramics by Eric Milner-White, received as a donation. Within the decorative art collection, the spots are Italian gold-ground panels (14th century), Dutch moral paintings (17th century), and French paintings (19th century).

Portraits from the 17th and 18th centuries, a group of Victorian narrative paintings and early 20th century paintings, also belong to the paintings of English artists dating from the Elizabethan era to the present day.
