Valentin Achille Lemot

Achille Lemot was a French illustrator, cartoonist, and caricaturist, also known under the pseudonyms Uzès and Lilio.

Born on December 31, 1846, to Simon Valentin and Jeanne Marguerite Coulon, his mother remarried on September 1, 1858, to Hubert Théophile Lemot.

A scholarship student at the Lycée de Reims and a pupil of André Gill, Désiré Achille Valentin, known as Achille Lemot, was made famous by Alphonse Daudet's novel Sapho, inspired by his unhappy love affair with Augustine-Reine Attagnant, for whom he became a counterfeiter in July 1871. The Assize Court sentenced him to 10 years' imprisonment for issuing counterfeit 20-franc notes from the Banque de France.

He illustrated the works of Charles Leroy, Alphonse Allais' brother-in-law, with drawings of Colonel Ramollot. An illustrator for numerous newspapers, with sometimes anti-Semitic tendencies, he was one of the regular contributors to Le Pèlerin and the children's magazines of the Maison de la Bonne Presse from 1884 until his death.

He is buried in the old cemetery in Asnières-sur-Seine.
