Richard Lund (9 July 1885 – 27 September 1960) was a Swedish film and theatre actor. He made his stage debut at Stora Teatern in Gothenburg in 1904 and later appeared in more than 70 films between 1912 and 1952, making his most important roles during the silent film era. Among his best-known roles is that of Sir Archie in Mauritz Stiller's Sir Arne's Treasure (1919). He was the most prominent "first lover" of Swedish film during his heyday.
