Charles Meynier (Paris, 1763 or 1768 - Paris, 1832) was a French painter. A student of Francois-Andre Vincent, Meynier won the second prize in the 1789 prix de Rome competition. He made designs for the bas-reliefs and statues on the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel and was, from 1816 onward, a member of the Academie des Beaux-Arts.
