Émile Aubry (18 April 1880, Sétif[1] – 9 January 1964, Voutenay-sur-Cure) was a French painter. He remained particularly attached to Algeria the country of his birth.
Early life
His father, Charles-Albert Aubry, came from Franche-Comté and was sent to Setif as Lieutenant in the French Army.[2] However he decided to settle there, where he became a local physician. His mother was born to French parents who had settled there thirty years previously. Émile grew up there with his brother Georges, before attending boarding school in Paris.[2]
In 1935 he was elected to the Académie des Beaux-Arts.
