Johann Georg Haeselich (also Haselick; 30 August 1806 – 6 December 1894) was a German genre painter and lithographer.

Education Haeselich studied the painting of nature with Gerdt Hardorff, who also taught Hermann Kauffmann in Naturstudien, and then continued his studies at the academies in Berlin and Dresden. In 1828 he went to Munich and entered the Academy of Fine Arts as a genre painter. He stayed in Munich until 1836 and was a member of the Hamburg art colony run by Andreas Borum. Journeying into the Bavarian mountains as well as to Tirol and Innsbruck he found the inspiration for the paintings that later made him famous. After returning to Hamburg he devoted himself to painting landscapes of the surrounding area, especially Holstein.

He was a member of the Hamburg art society, and is depicted in the 1840 painting Künstler-Vereinsbild by Günther Gensler.
