Henri-Pierre Picou (Nantes 27 February 1824 – 17 July 1895) was a French painter. Picou maintained a large workshop in Paris on the Boulevard de Magenta, which provided him room to work on his expansive frescoes. From his debut in 1847, he was a regular at the Salon, showing almost every year until his final exhibit in 1893.[3][7] He has been called the most fashionable painter towards the close of the Second French Empire.
