Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres

Portrait of Madame Moitessier

US$ 744.00

Madame Moitessier sits in flowered silk with one finger against her temple, and behind her a mirror shows her profile from an angle no mirror could actually give. Ingres worked on the portrait for twelve years, abandoning and restarting it. The pose is lifted from a Roman wall painting he had seen at Herculaneum.

Artist:

Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres (1780-1867) was David’s pupil and the great defender of line against Delacroix’s colour. He drew with almost inhuman precision and distorted anatomy freely when the design required it. Portraiture he claimed to resent, yet it produced his most extraordinary pictures.
