Jacques Goudstikker (30 August 1897 – 16 May 1940) was a Jewish Dutch art dealer who fled the Netherlands when it was invaded by Nazi Germany during World War II, leaving three furnished properties and an extensive and significant art collection including over 1,200 paintings, many of which had been previously catalogued as "Old Masters". The entire collection, which had been surveyed by Hermann Göring himself, was subsequently looted by the Nazis.
