Herminie Déhérain (born Herminie Lerminier; 1798–1839) was a French painter.

Born in Abbeville, Déhérain was a pupil of Hortense Haudebourt-Lescot prior to her marriage to magistrate Alexandre Déhérain. The couple had a son, Pierre, who became a botanist, and a daughter who became a portraitist. Herminie Déhérain exhibited at the Paris Salon beginning in 1827 and continuing until the year of her death; in 1831 she won a second-class medal, and in 1833 receiving plaudits from critics for a portrait of Antonin Moine, today owned by the musée national des châteaux de Versailles et de Trianon. She won notice for her religious paintings, too, including a depiction of Christ in the Garden of Olives that today hangs in the Collegiate Church of St. Wolfram at Abbeville, and not long before her death she produced a volume, Pious Images, containing lithographs after her drawings by Pierre Joseph Challemal. Déhérain died in Paris; an obituary notes a collection of unpublished writings, including manuscripts on the role of women in the arts and the beginning of a novel, which was left behind. These items are currently unlocated.[1]

Besides the portrait of Moine, several other works by Déhérain are held in the collection of the musée national des châteaux de Versailles et de Trianon; these include portraits of Charles IV of France, Philip the Bold, and Marie de Bourbon. In addition, a portrait of Louis, comte de Narbonne-Lara is held by the Musée de l'Armée in Paris. A depiction of Genevieve of Brabant is in the Musée Rolin in Autun, and a painting of Faith, Hope, and Charity is held by the museum in the Château de Vitré.[2]
