Noël Coypel, French painter, also called, from the fact that he was much influenced by Poussin, Coypel le Poussin, was the son of an unsuccessful artist.

Biography   
Having been employed by Charles Errard to paint some of the pictures required for the Louvre, and having afterwards gained considerable fame by other pictures produced at the command of the king, in 1672 he was appointed director of the French Academy at Rome. After four years he returned to France; and not long after he became director of the Academy of Painting. "The Martyrdom of St James" in Nôtre Dame is perhaps his finest work. His sons Antoine and Nöel-Nicolas were also painters.
