William Oliver Stone (September 26, 1830 – September 15, 1875) was an American portrait painter.

Stone was born in Derby, Connecticut. In the late 1840s he studied under Nathaniel Jocelyn in New Haven, and then moved to New York in 1851. He became fairly prominent there, and was elected an associate member of the National Academy in 1856, with full membership in 1859.
