Henri Brocard (1845-1922), polytechnician and officer, engineering commander, he is best known for his work on the modern geometry of the triangle with Émile Lemoine and Joseph Neuberg in the 1870s-1880s. We owe him the construction of Brocard's point, circle, line and angle which have particular properties.
