Giuseppe Bisi (1787–1869) was an Italian painter, mainly of landscapes in a Romantic style.
In 1829, he traveled to Rome, and painted landscapes in Lazio. He returned to Milan and in 1838, was named professor of landscape painter for the Accademia di Brera. He was the brother of the painter Michele Bisi, and married the painter Ernesta Legnani; their daughter Fulvia Bisi trained as a painter with her father. His nephew Luigi became a prominent painter. Among his followers was Roberto Garavaglia (died 1846) and Gaetano Gariboldi (died 1857).
