Lukrecija Bogasinovic Budmani (October 26, 1710 – June 8, 1784) was a Croatian poet.

The granddaughter of Petar Toma Bogasinovic, she was born in Dubrovnik, Republic of Ragusa. Her father was a government clerk who was unjustly accused of corruption and banished from Dubrovnik. At the age of 42, she married Simone Budmani; he died ten years later. She died in Dubrovnik at the age of 73.

Although she probably produced more work, being one of the most popular poets of her time, only four works survive as manuscripts:

  • Posluh Abrama patrijarke (The obedience of patriarch Abraham) (1763)
  • Zivot Tobije (The life of Tobith) (1763)
  • Razgovor pastirski vrhu porodenja Gospodinova (The shepherd's conversation on the Lord's nativity) (1764)
  • Zivot Jozefa patrijarke (The life of patriarch Joseph) (1770)
