Carriat-Rolant, Gabriel
Gabriel Carriat-Rolant (fl. c. 1935 - 1955) was a French painter and artist known for his colorful gouache Orientalist works. Details of his life are murky and minimal, but he appears to have emigrated to Morocco in the early-mid 1930s and producing distinctive works, which mostly related to the scenery and culture of North Africa. He is known to have produced at least three pictorial maps - one of French West Africa, one of Morocco, and one of Corsica.
