Jules Férat

Jules-Descartes Férat (1819 — 1889?) was a French artist and illustrator, famous for his portrayals of factories and their workers.

He also illustrated the books of many known authors, such as Jules Verne, Edgar Allan Poe, and Victor Hugo. Some critics consider his illustrations for Jules Verne's novel "The Mysterious Island" to be his greatest masterpieces.
