Louis-Gabriel Moreau (1740 – 12 October 1806) was a French graphic artist and landscape painter.

[4] He worked as an artist for the Count of Artois as a result of which for several years Moreau lived in the Louvre, which at the time was undergoing a protracted transition towards its subsequent status as a public museum and gallery.

While living here he continued to produce romanticised images of ruins until the outbreak of the revolution.

Following the outbreak of revolution the Louvre finally reopened as a public museum, formally in 1793, and Moreau continued to work there on conservation and restoration.

There are those who have identified similarities between the work of Louis-Gabriel Moreau and of Claude-Louis Châtelet,[5] one of the Queen's favourite artists.
