Emmanuel Poiré (6 November 1858 – 25 February 1909), known by the pseudonym Caran d'Ache (French pronunciation: [kaʁɑ̃ daʃ]), was a 19th-century Russian-French satirist and political cartoonist. While his first work glorified the Napoleonic era, he went on to create "stories without words" and as a contributor to newspapers such as the Le Figaro, he is sometimes hailed as one of the precursors of comic strips.
