Jean-Pierre Norblin de La Gourdaine (Polish: Jan Piotr Norblin; 15 July 1745 – 23 February 1830) was a Polish painter, draughtsman, engraver, drawing artist and caricaturist.
Born in France, from 1774 to 1804 he resided in the Crown of the Kingdom of Poland, where he obtained citizenship. He is considered one of the most important painters of the Enlightenment in Poland.
He achieved great success in Poland.
Given many commissions from some of the most notable families of the country, he stayed there for many years, not returning to Paris until the early 19th century.
His style showed the influence of Antoine Watteau, and combined the Rococo tradition of charming fêtes galantes and fêtes champêtres with a panorama of daily life and current political events, captured with journalistic accuracy.
He created a gallery of portraits of representatives of all social classes in the last years of the Polish–Lithuanian Commonwealth.
