John Pettie (17 March 1839 – 21 February 1893) was a Scottish painter from Edinburgh who spent most of his career in London. He became an associate member of the Royal Academy in 1866 and a full academician in 1874. As an enthusiastic amateur musician, he helped the career of the young composer Hamish MacCunn by organising concerts for him in his own studio. MacCunn, who would marry Pettie's daughter Alison in 1889, also served as a model for many of his paintings and sketches in various distinctive occasions.
