Auguste Charnaux was a prominent Swiss photographer and member of the Charnaux Frères & Cie studio in Geneva. He took over the family photography business from his father, Joseph Florentin Charnaux, in 1881. The brothers were known for their extensive work documenting Swiss landscapes, monuments, and major events, including the Swiss National Exhibition in Geneva in 1896. They were active members of the Union Suisse des Photographes (USP) starting in 1890.[1,2]
