Jean-Baptiste-Armand Guillaumin (Paris, February 16, 1841 - Orly, June 26, 1927) was a French impressionist painter and lithographer. He also worked for a French government railway before studying at the Academie Suisse in 1861. There, he met Paul Cézanne and Camille Pissarro with whom he maintained lifelong friendships. While he never achieved the stature of these two, his influence on their work was significant. Cézanne attempted his first etching based on Guillaumin paintings of barges on the River Seine.
