 The Illustrators of Jules Verne’s Voyages Extraordinaires   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-31)
Emile-Antoine Bayard (1837-1891) was a popular portrait painter and a regular contributor to many different periodicals like the Journal des Voyages, the Journal pour Rire, Cassell’s Magazine, Le Tour du monde, L’Illustration, and others.
He illustrated many of Erckmann-Chatrian’s fantasy tales, a number of literary works for youth by Alphonse Daudet, Jules Sandeau, Hector Malot, la Comtesse de Ségur, and several classic novels like Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables.
