Étienne Carjat, born in Fareins (Ain) on April 1 1828 and died in Paris on March 9 1906, was a French journalist, caricaturist and photographer.

He was co-founder of the journal Le Diogène and founder of the magazine Le Boulevard. We owe to him many portraits of famous figures of 19th century France.
