Lizinska de Mirbel (26 July 1796 – 29 August 1849) was a French painter of miniature portraits.

She spent her early childhood in Cherbourg, then moved to Sas van Gent during the Consulate when her father was reduced in rank to deputy commissioner of registration there.

Around 1806, after her father had been dismissed from the navy, Lizinca moved to Paris to stay with her uncle, General de Monthion.

Augustin taught her the technical skills of miniature painting, and she then followed the advice of a family friend, M. Belloc, and left the studio to devote herself to learning to draw by copying the masters.

He noted that he had to climb up a narrow, steep and winding set of stairs, and observed that "M. de [Mirbel] is a man of talents and great respectability, and his wife is exceedingly clever, but they are not rich.

Two card tables are set, and at one I recognize a party, in which are three dukes of the vieille cour, with M. de Duras at their head!

One or two of the grandees looked at me as if, better informed than Scott, they knew that General La Fayette had not gone to America to live.

Some of these gentlemen certainly do not love us; but I had cut out too much work for the night to stay and return the big looks of even dukes, and, watching an opportunity, when the eyes of Madame de [Mirbel] were another way, I stole out of the room.

[5] From this time Lizinca de Mirbel became much in demand by the Paris élite due to the king's favour.

[1] Some of her portraits exhibited at different shows included those of King Charles X, the Duke of Fitz-James (1827), Élie, duc Decazes, the Princess of Chalais, Count Demidoff (1834), Louis-Philippe, Louise of Orléans, the Duke of Orleans, the Count of Paris, Fanny Elssler (1839), General Gourgaud (1841), François Guizot (1844), the Duchess of Treviso (1845), the Marshal de Reggio (1847) and Émile de Girardin (1848).
