Caran d'Ache (1858 - 26 February 1909) was the pseudonym of the 19th century French satirist and political cartoonist Emmanuel Poiré. Caran d'Ache comes from the Russian word karandash meaning pencil (of Turkic origin; "kara dash" meaning black stone). The Swiss art products company Caran d'Ache is named after him. While his first work glorified the Napoleonic era, he went on to create "stories without words" and as a contributor to newspapers like the Lundi du Figaro, he is sometimes hailed as one of the precursors of comic strips.. ©TopFoto
