Alfred Boilot (1853–1941) was a French engraver and etcher whose work reflects the refinement and technical mastery characteristic of late‑19th‑ and early‑20th‑century French printmaking. Born in Paris, he trained under noted printmakers such as Butin and Damman and became active in major artistic circles, contributing to exhibitions including the Paris Blanc et Noir Salon of 1886. His engravings—often created in collaboration with prominent painters and illustrators—were prized for their delicate line, atmospheric detail, and elegant interpretation of narrative scenes. Boilot worked extensively for French, English, and American publishers, producing finely executed copper and wood engravings that circulated widely in illustrated books and collector editions. His oeuvre includes original prints as well as engravings after artists like José Jiménez Aranda, demonstrating both his technical versatility and his role in the international print culture of his time.
