Auguste-Louis de Sivry was a French art collector and art dealer, resident and mainly active in Venice in the 19th century.

He acquired part of the Nani collection of antiquities.[1] In 1841 he sold part of his collection to the Musée Calvet in Avignon.[1] Sometime after 1797 he bought Paris Bordone's Christ Disputing in the Temple from Count Tiepolo; it was still in de Sivry's collection in 1831 but is now in the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum in Boston, Massachusetts.[2] His collection also included The Annunciation, with Saint Emidius, now in the National Gallery, London, and a Portrait of Marchesa Balbi by Anthony van Dyck, now held by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC.[3]
