Fernand Cormon (París, 24 de diciembre de 1845 - 20 de marzo de 1924), también conocido como Fernand-Anne Piestre, fue un pintor francés. Fue alumno de Alexandre Cabanel, Eugène Fromentin y Jean-François Portaels, y uno de los principales pintores de temas históricos de la Francia de finales del siglo XIX. Atrajo a una edad muy temprana la atención de la crítica por el sensacionalismo de su arte, pues por un tiempo su poderoso pincel se detuvo con especial placer en escenas de derramamiento de sangre de estilo orientalista, como el Asesinato en el Serrallo (1868) y La muerte de Ravara, Rey de Lanka, ambas en el Museo de Toulouse. Su obra más conocida, Caín huyendo de la maldición de Jehová (1880), inspirada en La Légende des siècles de Victor Hugo, se conserva en el Musée d'Orsay. Trabajó varios años en la alcaldía del cuarto distrito de París, donde compuso, en grisalla, una serie de paneles: nacimiento, defunción, matrimonio, guerra, un funeral e imágenes ambientadas en la Edad de Piedra. Posteriormente también se dedicó al retrato.
