Victoria Dubourg or Victoria Fantin-Latour was a French still life painter.
Dubourg was born in Paris and studied under the artist Fanny Chéron. There she met the painter Henri Fantin-Latour, whom she married in 1876. She collaborated with him on his flower paintings, but also produced works under her own name, signed "V Dubourg". Dubourg has been criticized as an artist whose work lacks originality, simply reproducing the style of her well-known husband. However, a careful review of her early work shows that Dubourg began creating still lifes two years before she met Fantin-Latour.
