George Cochran Lambdin (January 6, 1830, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania - January 1896, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania), American artist.
The son of the famous portrait painter James Reid Lambdin (1807-1889), he studied at the Academy of Music of the Fine Arts in Philadelphia, and began exhibiting there in early 1848.

During the American Civil War, he worked in the United States for the Sanitary Commission, distributing medicine and bandages. He painted genre scenes of camp life and everyday scenes. Many of them became popular lithographs.

Due to poor health, he moved to Germantown, Philadelphia. There, he concentrated on painting flowers, especially roses.
Lambdin was elected to the National Academy of Arts in 1867, and was an academician at the Academy of Fine Arts in Music.
