Baroness Elizaveta Alexandrovna Stroganova (3/5 February 1779, Saint Petersburg - 8 April OS: 27 March 1818, Paris) (Russian - Елизавета Александровна Строганова) was a Russian aristocrat of the Stroganov family.

In September 1795 in Saint Petersburg, she married Count Nikolai Nikitich Demidov at the age of 16. They had two children, who lived to adult age - Pavel (Paul) (1798–1840) and Anatoly (Anatole) (1812–1869). Two other children, Aleksandra Nikolaievna Demidova (19 October 1796 – 24 August 1800) and Nikolai Nikolaievich Demidov (17 February 1799 – 24 August 1800) died as children.

Husband Nikolai Demidov became a diplomat and the couple set up home in Paris, becoming strong supporters of Napoleon I of France. However, mounting tensions between France and Russia forced Russia to call Nicolas back home in 1805. The couple then set up home in Italy before returning to Russia in 1812 to settle in Moscow.

They were of completely different characters and often lived apart. She was beautiful, light and witty, and her husband more introspective, and so they soon grew bored with each other. After Anatole's birth in 1812, they separated and she returned to live in Paris, where she died in 1818 and was buried in the Père Lachaise Cemetery.
