Louis Joseph Ernest Picard (24 December 1821 – 13 May 1877) was a French politician. He was born in Paris. After taking his doctorate in law in 1846 he joined the Parisian bar. Elected to the ''corps législatif'' in 1858, he became a follower of Émile Ollivier. As Ollivier moved towards the government standpoint, Picard, one of the members of the group known as ''Les Cinq'', veered more to the left. In 1868 he founded a weekly democratic journal, ''L'Electeur libre'', and in 1869 was elected both for Hérault and Paris, electing to sit for the former. From 4 September 1870 he held the portfolio of finance in the government of National Defence. In January 1871 he accompanied Jules Favre to Versailles to arrange the capitulation of the Paris Commune, and in the next month he became minister of the interior in Adolphe Thiers's cabinet. Attacked both by the monarchist and the republican press, he resigned in May. Later in the year he was sent as ambassador to Brussels, where he remained for two years. On his return to Paris he resumed his seat in the Left centre, and in 1875 became life senator. He died in Paris. ==See also== * List of works by Henri Chapu 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ernest Picard」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
