Pierre-Nicolas Sicot, known as Legrand de Lérant or de Sérant (Pont-l'Évêque, 1758 – Bern, 1829) was a French painter.
Pupil of Descamps at the École régionale des beaux-arts de Rouen (fr), along with Pierre Beljambe (fr) and Lequeu, Legrand won a second extraordinary prize in drawing, aged only 15. In 1782, he went to the école des Beaux-Arts de Paris.
Circa 1794, Legrand de Sérant departed for Bern, where he produced a variety of drawings for local notabilities and illustrated a novel by Isabelle de Charrière.
Legrand de Sérant was a member of the Academy of Lille.
