Jeanne Bardey (Lyon, 1872 - 1954) was a French painter and sculptor who lived in Lyon. She is well-known for being the last student of Auguste Rodin. In 1916, Rodin described Jeanne Bardey as his heir, but his last wishes were not respected, and therefore she was removed from his legacy. More than 600 of her sculptures are present in the collections of the Museum of Fine Arts of Lyon. Other pieces are exhibited at the Musée d'Orsay.
