《丢下領航員》(英語:Dropping the Pilot)是約翰·坦尼爾的一幅政治漫畫,於1890年3月29日首次發表在英國雜誌《Punch》上[1]。它描繪了奧托·馮·俾斯麥作為一名海上領航員走下一艘船,旁邊是年輕的皇帝威廉二世。這幅漫畫取材於船可能是受柏拉圖將國家比做船的比喻影響。由於政治分歧,俾斯麥在10天前的3月19日應威廉的要求辭去了帝國總理的職務[2][3]。
漫畫出版後,坦尼爾收到了第五代羅斯伯里伯爵普里姆羅斯的委託,要求他製作一份副本寄給俾斯麥本人。據報導,這位前總理回答說:“這畫畫得很好”[4]。
這幅漫畫在德國廣為人知,經常出現在歷史教科書和教科書中,標題是《領航員離船》(德語:Der lotse geht von Bord)[5]。
