Heinrich Harder (2 June 1858 – 5 February 1935) was a German artist and an art professor at the Prussian Academy of Arts in Berlin.

Heinrich Harder, as a landscape painter, exhibited paintings inspired by the scenery of Lüneburg, Mecklenburg, the Harz mountains, Sweden and Switzerland, at the Grosse Berliner Kunstausstellung in 1891.

He also illustrated natural history articles. These included a series accompanying Wilhelm Bölsche articles on earth history for Die Gartenlaube, a weekly magazine. He also illustrated 60 dinosaur and other prehistoric animal collecting cards for the Reichardt Cocoa Company, titled "Tiere der Urwelt" with accompanying text by Wilhelm Bölsche.
