Zoé-Laure de Chatillon, née Delaune (1826–1908) was a French painter.

Sleeping Child

Chatillon was born in Chambray but moved to Paris where she showed works at the Paris Salon during the years 1851-1887.[1] She was possibly related to Auguste de Châtillon, a French painter who travelled to New Orleans, as several of her paintings have been identified as depicting people from New Orleans.[2]

Her painting Sleeping Child, shown at the Salon of 1878, was included in the 1905 book Women Painters of the World.[3] Chatillon died in Clarens, Vaud.
