Antoine "Anto" Carte (8 December 1886 - 15 February 1954) was a Belgian painter.

[1] Anto Carte was first apprenticed to François Depooter, an interior painter, and then studied art at the academies of Mons and Brussels, and in Paris.

He started working in a Symbolist style, but after the First World War became a Flemish Expressionist painter in the style of the painters of the group of Sint-Martens-Latem like Gustave Van de Woestijne.

He had a solo exhibition in Pittsburgh, at the Carnegie Institute, in 1924, where all 60 paintings were sold.

From 1932 on, he was a professor at the La Cambre school and at the Académie Royale des Beaux-Arts in Brussels.
