Maria de la Paz Pardo de Tavera y Gorricho[Note 1] (died 3[1] or 6[2] October 1892) was a Philippine mestiza and wife of Filipino painter Juan Luna. Though born in the Philippines, she and her family moved to Paris some time after her father Félix's death in 1864.[3] She had two children with Luna: Andrés and María de la Paz, though the latter died when she was three years old.[3]

On 22 September 1892, after being accused of adultery, de Tavera was shot by Luna in their atelier in Villa Dupont [fr] alongside her mother Juliana Gorricho and her brother Félix, with the latter surviving the incident. De Tavera died from her gunshot wounds less than two weeks later.[3][1]
