Susanne Maria von Sandrart (10 August 1658 in Nuremberg – 20 December 1716 in Nuremberg) was a German artist and engraver. She was the daughter of engraver Jacob von Sandrart, and most of her work was produced for his workshop. At a young age, Von Sandrart began to learn different means of graphic art, producing artwork from her father's home studio.
