About Gabriel Perelle

Gabriel Perelle (1604–1677) was a French printmaker, painter, and draftsman best known for his topographic views and landscape etchings. Active from roughly 1625 to 1674, he produced a substantial body of reproductive prints that recorded the scenery, architecture, and gardens of France and surrounding regions. Working primarily in etching and engraving, Perelle often translated compositions by other artists—notably the Dutch painter Jan Asselijn—into finely detailed prints that circulated widely among collectors of the period. He was the father of Nicolas Perelle and Adam Perelle, who also became printmakers. Perelle's output, referenced in standard references including Thieme/Becker and Bénézit, places him among the notable French Baroque printmakers whose landscape imagery served both documentary and decorative purposes for seventeenth-century audiences.

Common works and media

Gabriel Perelle's most commonly encountered works are etchings and engravings depicting topographic views, landscapes, garden designs, and architectural scenes. These prints are typically small to medium in scale and were often issued in series. Original drawings by Perelle appear less frequently. Works are found in museum and library print cabinets worldwide, including collections documented by the RKD and major encgravings catalogues.

Market and appraisal context

Gabriel Perelle's works appear on the market primarily as Old Master prints and, less frequently, as drawings. The most commonly encountered pieces are etchings and engravings of topographic views, landscapes, and architectural scenes. As reproductive prints, their value depends on impression quality, paper condition, plate state, and the specific series or subject. Prints after well-known designers like Jan Asselijn may attract additional interest. Collectors should verify attribution carefully, as Perelle's sons Nicolas and Adam produced similar topographic prints. Consult auction databases for comparable realized prices and lot history.

Appraisal caveats

  • No specific auction records or realized prices are available in the collected source pack; consult dedicated auction databases for price history.
  • Birth year is uncertain: RKD records 1604, VIAF lists ca. 1603, and Wikidata lists 1610. The RKD date (1604-03-07) is the most specific but conflicts should be noted.
