Achille Granchi-Taylor was a French painter and illustrator.
His father was an Italian immigrant and commercial traveller and his mother English. He passed his youth in Paris and when he resolved to follow painting he joined the studios of Fernand Cormon. Between 1886 and 1888 he settled in Pont-Aven. He married a cousin and finally moved to Asnières finding the Breton climate too harsh.

The paintings of Achille Granchi-Taylor are full of melancholy and he captured the harsh life endured by the fishing community, painting scenes depicting the return of fishing boats and paintings of Breton women waiting on the quay for their husbands to return. In 1905 he designed a poster for the "La Fête des Filets Bleus", created in that year to help the victims of the crisis which had hit the sardine industry.
