Louis-Henri Baratte


Louis-Henri Baratte (30 April 1803 in Criquetot-l'Esneval) was a French scholar.

A doctor of medicine, Baratte undertook to publish a collection of portraits of the famous Normans composed of at least two thousand portraits engraved in copperplate. This collection, which was acquired in 1847 by the library of Rouen, received the collaboration of many other Norman men of letters, such as J.-F. Destigny from Caen, J. Mortent, Édouard Neveu, Georges Mancel, Alphonse Le Flaguais, J. Charma, Théodore-Éloi Lebreton. A. Delavigne, R. Deslandes and G. Lhéry, and also Pierre-François Tissot and Jules Janin.
