Jules David is an Impressionism artist. 4 works are cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Jules David made mid-19th-century French prints that preserved street theatre and popular amusements. His engravings of the George Speaight Punch & Judy Collection and the H Beard Print Collection show puppet shows and fairground scenes with a crisp, documentary style. Two later watercolours from 1889 and 1866 capture quieter moments in the same tradition.
