Georg Pauli (Jönköping, July 2, 1855 - November 28, 1935) was a Swedish painter. Around 1890, he moved towards a symbolist and synthesist style. Having encountered cubism in Paris in 1911, he apprenticed himself to André Lhote and moved towards a cubist style, which he however abandoned in the 1920s. He had a lifelong interest in classical motifs, mythology and symbolism which was often reflected in his paintings.
