Edmond Charles Joseph Yon was a French landscape painter, watercolorist and lithographer.
Edmond Yon was born in Paris in 1841 as the son of the sculptor Charles Yon (1803-1851). Yon studied in Paris under the direction of the lithographer Jean Achille Pouget and the sculptor Justin Lequien (1826–1882) and then worked as a wood cutter and etcher. He cut from his own templates for various magazines such as Le Monde Illustré, L'Illustration, L'Art and made reproductions based on the works of Corot and Millet.
In 1865 Yon exhibited his works for the first time and then regularly at the Paris Salon. From 1867 Yon turned increasingly to painting and created atmospheric, lifelike landscapes from the Paris area, and shoreline scenes of the rivers Seine, Oise, Marne and Bièvre. He received gold medals at the Paris Salon in 1875, 1879 and 1889 as well as a gold medal at the World Exhibition in 1889. In 1886 he was made a Knight of the Legion of Honor.
Edmond Yon died in 1897.
