Abstract
French family of architects. Jacques I Gabriel (b Argentan) was sufficiently prominent before the end of the first decade of the 17th century to be called upon to provide Rouen with a Hôtel de ville. His sons Maurice I Gabriel (b 1602; d 1649) and Jacques II Gabriel (b 1605) practised architecture in Normandy and Touraine respectively. Maurice’s sons Jacques III Gabriel (b 1637; d 1697) and Maurice II Gabriel (b 1639; d 1693), practised in Paris, where they were eclipsed in importance by Jacques II’s son Jacques IV Gabriel. Jacques IV’s second son, Jacques V Gabriel, also became an architect, but the most distinguished member of the family was Jacques V’s son Ange-Jacques Gabriel.
