Charles-Édouard Armand Dumaresq (1826-1895) was a pupil of Thomas Couture. He was a watercolorist, draftsman and painter, initially of religious subjects, then mainly of military subjects. 
He was a member of the international jury at the 1867 Universal Exhibition in Paris. He exhibited his large-format painting Cambronne at Waterloo, for which Napoleon III awarded him the Cross of the Legion of Honor. The painting is bought by the Pasha of Egypt.
His works can be found in the Château de Versailles Museum, the National Library's Cabinet des Estampes and the Musée National de la Coopération Franco-Américaine in Blérancourt (Oise). One of his paintings, Signature of American Independence, can be seen in the Cabinet Room at the White House.
