Jacob Hägg (22 July 1839 – 15 April 1931) was a Swedish naval officer and marine artist. He entered the Naval Academy in 1858, and was commissioned as an officer in 1863. He sailed on several long journeys, including one circumnavigation of Earth. He entered the Fleet Staff in 1888, was appointed head of the Naval Academy in 1895 and promoted to rear admiral in 1899. In parallel to his military career, Hägg was also active as an artist. He made drawings and other graphic works, watercolours and oil paintings almost exclusively on marine subjects. He was also an active promoter of marine history and lobbied for the establishment of the Maritime Museum in Stockholm.
