Edward Ignacy Jan Lepszy was a Polish painter.
Lepszy was the son of Jan Lepszy and his wife Aniela. Leonard Lepszy was his younger brother. In 1890–93 he traveled around Lithuania, Latvia and Belarus, working in Riga and Libau, among other places, where he painted seascapes. However, he mainly made portraits. In 1894 he became assistant to the sculptor Leonard Marconi in the drawing and modeling department at the Polytechnic. After his death in 1899 he became a professor and from 1900 ran his own painting school for women in Lemberg for several years. He repeatedly took part in exhibitions in the Warsaw gallery "Salon Krywult" at the Society of Friends of Fine Arts in Kraków. Lepszy's works went to the Warsaw Art Society and the Lviv Church of St. Mary.
