Yun Tusŏ (Korean: 윤두서; Hanja: 尹斗緖; 28 July 1668 – 21 December 1715) was a painter and scholar of the Joseon period. He is the grandson of Yun Sŏndo, a great scholar in Korean history. He passed the gwageo exam, but did not enter government service. Rather, he devoted his whole life to painting and studying Confucianism. His self-portrait is regarded as one of the many masterpieces of Korean art. Yun Tusŏ is also known for his yeongmohwa (animal-and-bird painting). He was a member of the Haenam Yun clan (해남 윤씨; 海南 尹氏).
