Paul Baudier, (born October 18, 1881 in Paris and died December 9, 1962 in Châtillon), was a French painter, engraver and illustrator. Spending his childhood in the countryside, in the Gâtinais, Paul Baudier will always be attracted by landscapes. later he apprenticed with his uncle Edmond Duplessis, who taught him the technique of wood engraving. He began by working for La Vie illustrée, then did his military service after winning the competition for the Meilleur Ouvrier de France. In 1914, he was mobilized and, at the start of the war, he was wounded and taken prisoner. After two years of captivity in Germany, he spent a year in Switzerland in Kartigen, near Thun. He paints and draws life in the prison camp, as well as landscapes that he exhibits in Geneva. He frequented the group of the Lachenal studio in Châtillon, and became friends with a large number of artists whom he met there: Sarah Bernhardt, Van Dongen, Foujita, Suzanne Tourte, Agnès de Frumerie, Georges Halbout du Tanney, Jules Rispal, Felix Fevola. He decided to settle in this city and built there, in 1927, a pavilion and a workshop rue des Egroux, today rue Guy Moquet. At the same time, he also frequented renowned engravers such as Edmond Duplessis, Albert Decaris, P.A. Bouroux, as well as writers such as Paul Valéry, Georges d'Esparbès and Jean Valmy-Baysse. His wife died in 1929, he then traveled through France to produce illustrations for Tableau de France by Jules Michelet, on behalf of the Société des bibliophiles franco-suisse.
