Alexandre Lunois
Alexandre Lunois was born on February 2, 1863, in Paris. Lunois was an autodidact and is considered to be the re-inventor of the lithotint technique. His first works were black and white lithographs, including "Scenes from a Life in Paris," "The Circus" and "Dutch Scenes." Inspired by his yearly travels, Alexandre Lunois went more and more to color lithography. He produced the illustrations for Theophile Gautier's "Fortunio," among others. Alexandre Lunois also worked as an engraver from 1907 onwards and published a luxury edition of the fairy tales of Hans Christian Andersen with 66 of his engravings under the title "Histoires et Aventures" in his own publishing house. Lunois died on September 2, 1916, in Le-Pecq.
