Antoine Johannot, known commonly as Tony Johannot (1803–1852), was a French engraver, illustrator and painter. Tony learned engraving from his brothers and helped Alfred produce illustrations of books by James Fenimore Cooper and Walter Scott. Tony came to prefer wood engraving but resumed etching in 1845. His historical paintings were exhibited at the Paris Salon for the first time in 1831. He became an illustrator much prized for his elegance, his diversity, and the lively character of his drawings.
