Johann Georg Pinsel

Johann Georg Pinsel (, ; 1707–1710 – 1761 or 1762) was a Baroque-Rococo sculptor active in Eastern Galicia (then in the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth, now in Ukraine). On 13 May 1751, he married Marianna Elżbieta née Majewska, the widow of Jan Kieyt. He had two sons with her: Bernard and Antoni.

He died between 16 September 1761 and 24 October 1762, probably in Buchach.

Pinsel's works include sculptures and decorations of the Buchach Town Hall (1750s), the Trinitarian church (1756–1757) and the St. George's Cathedral (headquarters of Greek Catholics) in Lviv, (1759–1761), interiors of the Roman Catholic churches in: Monastyryska (1761), Horodenka (1752–1755) and Hodovytsia (1757–1758),

Almost all of his sculptural complexes have been damaged or destroyed. In particular, little is left from his sculptures in the Roman Catholic churches in Horodenka and Monastyryska. His only work that remains intact in its original form, including the intended spatial arrangement, is the facade of the St. George's Cathedral. Employees of the Lviv Art Gallery preserved all Pinsel's figures from the high altar in Hodovytsia.
