Aart van Dobbenburgh (Amsterdam, September 30, 1899 – Haarlem, July 3, 1988) was a Dutch artist and graphic artist.
Van Dobbenburgh became known for his lithographs. He drew various subjects, such as flowers, portraits, landscapes, but human hands were his favourite.

His total lithographic oeuvre is estimated to comprise approximately 800 works. He also made a number of woodcuts and watercolors. Nationally known are the lithographs of Mother Queen Emma (1936), his cousin Dr. Willem Drees (1949), Henriette Roland Holst (1949) and the then Queen Juliana (1961).
Van Dobbenburgh illustrated works by the Russian writers Tolstoy and Dostoevsky, among others. In 1949 Tolstoy's 'War and Peace' appeared with lithographs of the main characters by Van Dobbenburgh. He also drew 'Katoesja' and 'Mary' from Tolstoy's Resurrection and Anna Karenina after the novels of the same name.
