Adélaïde Binart

Adélaïde Binart (9 March 1769 – September 1832) was a French neoclassical painter-artist.

Adélaïde Binart was born 9 March 1769, in Paris. She exhibited her works, mostly portraits, at the Salon of 1795–1817. In 1794, she married Alexandre Lenoir, with whom she had three children: Zelia (1795–1813), Albert (1801–1891) and Clodomir (1804–1887). Her studio was located in the former convent of the Petits-Augustins. There are three known portraits of her: at age 27 by Marie Bouliard (1796, Paris, Musée Carnavalet), at age 30 by the artist Pierre-Maximilien Delafontaine, where she is in the company of her husband and daughter, and at age 40 (1809) by Jacques-Louis David.
