Louis-Alexandre Bouché (1838–1911) was a French painter born in Luzancy, where he also died. One of eight children, he worked in a tile factory as a child and later in millstone production. Louis-Jean-Marie Rémy taught him drawing and introduced him to Camille Corot, who encouraged him to go to Paris. After travelling in France and Italy, Bouché settled in Messy, near Luzancy. Primarily a landscape painter, he devoted numerous compositions to the surroundings of the Marne and also painted portraits. Une rue à Luzancy, shown at the Salon of 1874, is held by the fine arts museum in Limoges. He received a third-class medal in 1895 and became a Knight of the Legion of Honour in 1905.
