Laura Leroux-Revault (née Maria Laura Desiderata Le Roux) (14 September 1872 – June 1936) was a French artist and painter, trained at the Académie Julian art school in Paris. Her first teacher was her father, the painter Louis Hector Leroux. Her passion for Shakespeare and for the Middle Ages gained expression in her paintings which often show women dressed or positioned in ways that evoke medieval themes.^[1]
