  Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In 1815 Ingres executed Raphael and the Fornarina in 1816 Aretino and the envoy of Charles V, and Aretino and Tintoretto; in 1817 the Death of Leonardo and Henry IV playing with his children, both of which works were commissions from the Comte de Blacas, then ambassador of France to the Holy See.

During this time Ingres was working on the monumental Vow of Louis XIII, which had been commissioned for the cathedral at Montauban, but he reminded Gilibert that it was the small pictures that took the longest and required the most minute care.
In November of 1821 Ingres declared, on the first of several occasions, that the painting was finished "to the contentment of all." (Boyer d’Agen dates this letter to 1822, but Blanc’s dating of 1821 is the only logical one.) He complained again of the trouble little pictures (made "with too much conscience") caused him.
Nevertheless, Ingres seems to have been unable to resist further refinements and in January of 1822 wrote Gilibert that he had again retouched the painting, which was slow to dry because it was painted on wood.

Ingres's traditional training allied to his research into the customs of the Ottoman court produced a hybrid marriage of the ideal and the real; his bathers and odalisques are ideal beauties, but also real women, their existence emphasized by the artist's choice of luxury fabrics and accessories.
