Louis-Gabriel Moreau
Louis-Gabriel Moreau was a French graphic artist and landscape painter.
He is frequently identified as "Moreau the elder" ("Moreau l’Aîné") in order to avoid confusion with his precocious younger brother, the artist Jean-Michel Moreau (1741–1814) who is sometimes identified as "Moreau the younger" ("Moreau le Jeune").
