Jacob Mącznik (4 December 1905 – 10 May 1945) was a Polish-French Jewish artist and a young painter associated with the École de Paris until its destruction during the Nazi occupation. Variations of his surname include Macznik, Moncznik, and Montchnik, while alternative forms of his given name include Jakub, Yankel, Jankel, Yakov, and Yank'l. Édouard Roditi, the poet, essayist, surrealist author, scholar, critic, translator, and art historian, wrote that Mącznik was "among the more prominent artists who died as victims of Nazi extermination camps" and stated that, had he "lived to profit from the post-war international boom in contemporary art," he "might indeed have now enjoyed considerable fame." Encyclopaedia Judaica notes, regarding victims of the École de Paris: "Among the more prominent artists who died as victims of Nazi extermination camps were [seventeen painters are then listed, including] '... Jacob Macznik 1905–1944 [sic] ...'" The entry continues: "These martyred artists were gifted with such outstanding and diverse talents that it would now be as unfair to try to force them all into a Jewish school as it was, under the Nazi regime, to deny them their human rights because they were Jews."
