Henry Scheemakers (birth name: Hendrik Scheemaekers) (Flanders c.1686 - Paris, 18 July 1748) was a Flemish-born sculptor who worked in England and France in the first half of the 18th century.[1]

Henry was elder brother to the better known (in England) Peter Scheemakers the Younger, with whom he collaborated on some projects. Henry's younger son Thomas-Henry took on his uncle Peter the Younger's workshop in Vine Street after Peter retired in the 1770s.[2]
