Joseph Bouchardy (1810–1870) was an author, playwright, engraver, and member of the Jeune France/
Legion d'Honneur.[1]
He is the brother of Anatole Bouchardy.
According to Théophile Gautier, he died unhappily: "He had become a gaunt old man, broken, destroyed by grief, and by the sadness of authors who have experienced the intoxication of success, and whose popularity retires without being able to appreciate the reasons why it went away."
