Apolline Lacroix
Apolline Lacroix (née Biffe 1805–1896) was a French actress who married Paul Lacroix, the curator of the Bibliothèque de l'Arsenal in Paris, on May 7, 1834. She lived with Paul Lacroix's collaborator, art collector Théophile Thoré-Bürger, for more than a decade until his death.

On Thoré-Bürger's death, she inherited his valuable art collection which included paintings by Vermeer and "The Goldfinch" by Carel Fabritius that Thoré-Bürger had found in Brussels 200 years after its creation. Much of the collection was subsequently sold off.
