Jacobus Buys (19 November 1724 - 7 April 1801) was a Dutch painter and engraver.
Buys was born in Amsterdam. He studied under C. Pronk, Jacob de Wit, and C. Troost, and ultimately became director of the Drawing Academy of his native city, where he died in 1801. He painted portraits, bas-reliefs, and tapestry, designed book-illustrations, and made copies of the works of the best masters of the seventeenth century.
