Poleksija Todorović (1848 – 1939) was a Serbian painter.
She was born in Belgrade, Serbia, as Poleksija Ban, the daughter of Margarita Ban and Matija Ban, Serbian writer and diplomat. The beginnings of her painting are linked to the drawing school of Jovan Deroko, and later to her husband Stevan Todorović.
She mostly painted icons and portraits, sometimes landscapes. She worked on the iconostastis in the Holy Trinity Church in Negotin in 1901. There are 16 of her paintings in the collection of the National Museum.
Alongside Katarina Ivanović and Mina Karadžić, she was one of the three Serbian women painters who worked in the 19th century.
