Caran d'Ache
Caran d'Ache was the pseudonym of the 19th century French satirist and political cartoonist Emmanuel Poiré (November 6, 1858 – February 26, 1909).〔 "Caran d'Ache" comes from the Russian word ''karandash'' (карандаш), meaning ''pencil,'' which in turn comes from the Turkish words ''kara taş,'' meaning ''black stone.'' 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 ''Lundi du Figaro'', he is sometimes hailed as one of the precursors of comic strips. The Swiss art products company Caran d'Ache is named after him.〔(Caran d’Ache and the story of the black stone )〕

In 1877 Caran d'Ache emigrated to France where he took French citizenship and joined the Army〔 for five years where he was assigned to design uniforms for the ministry of war and where he also contributed to their journal, ''La Vie militaire'', with satirical illustrations, among them some caricatures of the German army.
