Alfred Mahlau (21 June 1894 in Berlin – 22 January 1967),[1] German painter, illustrator and teacher. He was best known for his graphical work and illustrations, and for the large stained glass window, Dance of Death,[2] in the Lübeck Marienkirche (St. Mary's Church in Lübeck), which paid homage to a famous mural of the Dance of Death in the church that was destroyed in the bombing of Lübeck during World War II. His books include a number of works with paintings and drawings of Hamburg and the Hamburg port. The product design for Niederegger from the twenties is still in use.[3]

Among his students were Horst Janssen, Vicco von Bülow, and Chinese-German artist Dr Chow Chung-cheng. His work is collected by the Busch-Reisinger Museum, among others.
