What Wikipedia says

Robert-Nicolas-Charles Bochsa (French pronunciation: [ʁɔbɛʁ nikɔla ʃaʁl bɔksa]; 9 August 1789 – 6 January 1856) was a French harpist and composer. His relationship with Anna Bishop was popularly thought to have inspired that of Svengali and Trilby in George du Maurier's 1894 novel Trilby.
