Miloš Tenković (Cyrillic Serbian Милош Тенковић; Belgrade, Principality of Serbia, 8 April 1849 – Belgrade, Kingdom of Serbia, 16 January 1891) was a prominent Serbian painter.[1] His style is characteristic of the realistic school of the period.

Among his works, we can note the Landscape with cows [archive], preserved in the National Museum in Belgrade. His work is also a part of the collection of Dom Jevrem Grujić.[2] After 1870, he was part of a generation of painters educated in the Munich[3] that heralded a new phase in Serbian art, one in which pure landscape was accepted as an independent art form. Influenced by a wide range of ideas from various European schools, still-life and village scenes now became a respectable subject matter. Among the three prominent artists from this time, all three alumni of the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich, were Miloš Tenković, Đorđe Krstić, Antonije Kovačević, and .[4]

His best works are held in the National Museum in Belgrade, including "Florist" (1877),[5]"Broken Majolica", "Self-portrait" (1875-1877), "Landscape with Cows" (1875-1877) and "Still Life (1878).[6]
