Biography

Joanni Perronet (19 October 1877 – 1 April 1950) was a French fencer. He competed at the 1896 Summer Olympics in Athens, winning a silver medal and 3 goats.

Perronet was a fencing master, the only professional allowed to compete in the Olympic Games at the time. Two such masters, Perronet and Leonidas Pyrgos of Greece, competed in a special foil fencing event at the first modern Olympics. The two faced each other in an event that consisted of a single bout to three touches. Perronet lost the bout, 3-1.
