William (Bill) Horace Littlefield (1902 – 1969) est un peintre américain connu pour ses personnages de nus masculins et, plus tard, pour ses grandes peintures dans un style expressionniste abstrait.
Dès 1929 il explore avec succès la peinture de paysages. Mais sa passion pour le classicisme l’amène également à peindre des scènes de la mythologie antique représentant des hommes nus.
En 1942, Littlefield s’est porté volontaire pour rejoindre l’armée américaine pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale et a servi fidèlement jusqu’à ce qu’il soit libéré en 1945.
