Georges-François-Marie Gabriel (1775 – January 1, 1865) was a French miniature painter and designer. Born in Paris, he was a pupil of Naigeon and Regnault. Among his designs are those ordered by the French Government for the great work of the Institute on Egypt; and among his portraits is one of Madame de Maintenon, engraved by Mécou, which forms the frontispiece to her memoirs by Lafont d'Ausonne. Gabriel died January 1, 1865, in the 14th arrondissement of Paris.[1]
