Van Huysum (also spelled van Huijsum) is a surname from the Netherlands, meaning "of/from Huizum," a district of Leiden, South Holland.

Four generations of van Huysums were visual artists of the Dutch Golden Age of the 17th and 18th centuries. Jan van Huysum is the most important figure of the family. "Some degree of confusion exists between works of Justus I and II, and Jacob and Jan van Huysum, to whom a vast number of works by others have also been wrongly attributed."[1]
