Albert Marie Adolphe Dagnaux (1861 –1933) was a French landscape, tableaux and figure painter.
His father was the owner of a small restaurant, "Le Dagnaux", in the 6th arrondissement of Paris. He began his studies in 1878 at the École nationale supérieure des beaux-arts. His first exhibit was in 1883, at the Salon, but he received no recognition.
In 1890, he left the Salon to join the Société Nationale des Beaux-Arts, founded by Jean-Louis-Ernest Meissonier.[3] It was at that time that he began to receive positive critical attention. His first major success came with his tableau Avenue du Bois de Boulogne.
