  • PC_Fr-Boutet01Early unused French postcard - Original suffragette-themed sketch by Henri Boutet (PC_FrBoutet01) Henri Boutet (1851-1919) was a French engraver and illustrator. He was born in Sainte-Hermine (Vendée) in 1851. In the 1890s he specialised in the production of etchings representing women in negligees, resulting in his being nicknamed the "little master of the corset" or the "painter of the midinette". With his growing reputation, Boutet launched his own publishing house and sold his productions to periodicals such as Le Frou-frou, L'Assiette au beurre and Le Pêle-Mêle. In 1902 he published " Les Modes Feminines du XIXe Siecle " which met with instant acclaim. He died in Paris on 9 June 1919.

He attended the local Liscard School of Art and Reading University. May's earliest drawings were produced for the Liverpool Daily Post and North Eastern Daily Gazette. His first cartoons for the Tatler were sent home in 1917 from the trenches where he was serving as an infantry officer with the Green Howards. He was asked to provide caricatures of men on the Western Front between the shelling. He developed an acute, gentle and humorous style from the 1920s onwards, caricaturing personalities including Winston Churchill, who autographed his own likeness. May served again during the Second World War, when he was honoured with the Legion d'Honneur, and after the war he continued to work for the Tatler, but also the Graphic and Weekly Sketch and News Chronicle right up until his death in 1976. He was a nephew of the cartoonist Phil May .
