Victor Dubreuil (né Marie Victor Théodore Dubreuil 8 November 1842–date of death unknown) was a French–American artist known for his trompe l'oeil paintings of money.
[3] After joining the army and fighting in the Second Franco-Mexican and Franco-Prussian wars, Dubreuil moved to Paris and worked as a bank director.
He became a socialist agitator, founded both a newspaper and an African development company, then absconded having been charged with stealing half a million francs.
[2] Once in the United States, he taught himself to paint, specializing in very realistic depictions of money.
From 1887 to 1889, Dubreuil had a studio at 196 7th Avenue, and from 1895 to 1896, he was painting at 110 West 44th Street in Manhattan.
