Hippolyte Lazerges

Jean Raymond Hippolyte Lazerges (1817–1887) was a French painter, and composer of mélodies and chansons.

Lazerges was born in Narbonne, France and studied in Paris under the sculptor David d'Angers and the painter François Bouchot.[1] He died in Si-Mustapha, a suburb of Algiers, Algeria.

Among his light songs Éloge du tabac has been recorded by Paul Van Nevel's Huelgas Ensemble.

His son Jean-Baptiste Paul Lazerges (1845–1902) was also a painter.[2]
