Marie-Lambertine Coclers (1761 – after 1815) was a pastel artist and engraver born in the Holy Roman Empire.

Born in Liège, Coclers was the daughter of Jean-Baptiste Coclers, who died during her childhood. Her instructor was her elder brother, Jean-Baptiste-Bernard Coclers; he made an etching of a young female artist at work which might depict his sister.[1] She came from a family with many artists. She worked in Amsterdam for a while and there she adapted the style of Adriaen van Ostade.
