Ambroise Louis Garneray (1832-1837) was a French corsair, painter and writer. He served under Robert Surcouf and Jean-Marie Dutertre and was held as prisoner-of-war aboard Royal Navy prison hulks for eight years before being captured before being repatriated at the conclusion of the Napoleonic Wars, continuing his career as a painter until his death in 1857.
