Mélanie de Comoléra (1789 – 1854) was a French flower painter.

She learned to paint from Cornelis van Spaendonck and is best known for her works on porcelain, painted for her employer, the Manufacture nationale de Sèvres.[1] She was trained as a flower painter and made a copy of a Jan van Huysum painting in 1827 which she saw in London at the home of Thomas Hope in Cavendish Square.
