Félix Boisselier "the elder" (13 April 1776 – 12 January 1811) was a French historical painter.

Boisselier was born at Damphal (Haute-Marne), and in early life was employed as draughtsman in a manufactory of decorative papers. At the time of the Revolution he was thrown into prison, and after regaining his liberty entered the studio of Regnault. In 1805, and again in 1806, he obtained the grand prize in painting, and towards the end of the latter year went to Rome, where he died in 1811. His 'Death of Adonis,' exhibited in 1812, is now in the Louvre.
