Louis Le Breton

Louis Le Breton (15 January 1818 – 30 August 1866) was a French painter who specialised in marine art.

Le Breton studied medicine and took part in Dumont d'Urville's second voyage aboard the Astrolabe. After the official illustrator of the expedition died, Le Breton replaced him.

From 1847 he devoted himself mainly to depicting marine subjects for the French Navy.
