Benjamin Eugène Fichel son of Moise Mayer Fichel and Lili Abigail Sasias, was a French painter.

Eugène Fichel entered the École des Beaux-Arts in 1844 and became a pupil of Hippolyte Delaroche and Michel Martin Drolling, but painted very much more under the inspiration of Jean-Louis-Ernest Meissonier, whose exquisite handling is suggested in numerous small canvases of his which by their refined technique and vivid action recall the characteristic intensity and directness of composition which belong to the painter of "Friedland." His students included Jeanne Samson, who first exhibited at the Salon in 1869, and whom he later married.

Along with great care in finish, Fichel's canvases also exhibit an archæological exactness, and a kind of delicate humor. His first work of importance was exhibited in 1849 and in 1850 he participated with "Harvey Demonstrating the Circulation of the Blood to Charles I". In 1857 he received a medal for his painting in the Salon of that year and received a second medal in 1869. He exhibited a canvas every year at the Salon until 1895. He became Chevalier of the Legion of Honor in 1870.
