Nicolas Bernard Lépicié (16 June 1735 – 15 September 1784) was a French painter and teacher of painting, the son of two well-known engravers at the time, François-Bernard Lépicié and Renée-Élisabeth Marlié.

Nicolas-Bernard studied with leading artists of the century including Carle Vanloo.

He taught important names such as Carle Vernet, Jean-Frederic Schall, Jean-Antoine-Théodore Giroust, Jean-Joseph Taillasson, Henri-Pierre Danloux, Jean-Baptiste Regnault and Nicolas-Antoine Taunay.

Lépicié's work was visibly influenced by his father's friend, Jean-Baptiste-Siméon Chardin, whose themes were a source of inspiration.

Lépicié's subjects range from portraits (Le Petit Dessinateur -1772; The Astronomer (i.e. Pierre Charles Le Monnier) - 1777) to history paintings (Achilles and the Centaur Chiron - 1769) and genre scenes (A Mother Feeding her Child - 1774, Cour de ferme - 1784).
