Edmund Blair Leighton (21. september 1852 – 1. september 1922) var en engelsk maler i den historiske genre, der var specialiseret i regency- og middelaldermotiver.
Leighton var søn af kunstneren Charles Blair Leighton. Han blev uddannet på University College School, før han blev studerende ved Royal Academy Schools. Han giftede sig med Katherine Nash i 1885 og de fik en søn og datter. Han udstillede årligt på Royal Academy fra 1878 til 1920.
Leighton var en kræsen kunstner, der producerede malerier med mange detaljer i hans romantiske scener. Han har tilsyneladende ikke efterladt sig nogle dagbøger og selvom han udstilliede på Royal Academy i over 40 år blev han aldrig ansat som underviser eller lektor.
Ved hans død blev der udgivet flere nekrolog, hvor hans fødselsår fejlagtigt blev angivet som 1853 i stedet for 1852.[1]
