	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 commissioned by the Comte de Blacas, then ambassador of France to the Holy See.
		Madame Ingres acquired a faith in her husband which enabled her to combat with courage and patience the difficulties which beset their common existence, and which were increased by their removal to Florence.
		Ingres thus left himself without the means of producing the necessary unity of effect when dealing with crowded compositions, such as the Apotheosis of Homer and the Martyrdom of Saint Symphorien, which had been employed by Raphael, the master he most revered.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Jean-Auguste Dominique Ingres
		Ingres had been friendly with a Florentine sculptor named Bartolini, and was strongly atracted by the works of the early Renaissance period, and by that art throbbing with life, and almost feverish in its manner of depicting nature, such as we find examples of in the works of Donatello and Filippo Lippi.
		Henceforward Ingres was looked up to as the leader of the traditional School, and he proves his claim to the title by producing the famous "Apotheosis of Homer" (Louvre, 1827).
		Ingres was a naturalist who persisted in practising the most idealistic style of art which was ever attempted in the French School.

	Madame Moitessier by INGRES, Jean-Auguste-Dominique
		It is often said that while Delacroix was the great proponent of French Romanticism, his older contemporary Ingres was the champion of the classical tradition: obsessed with Raphael and antiquity, upholder of 'drawing' versus 'colour'.
		The doubtless bored and wriggling child was soon banished as Ingres wrestled with the picture, requiring long hours of immobility from his model.
		Ingres is recorded as still working on the portrait in 1847.

	JEAN AUGUSTE DOMINIQUE INGRES, Don Pedro of Toledo Kissing the Sword of Henri IV
		The figures in the Louvre painting were identified during Ingres’ lifetime as the Duc d’Epernon, Gabrielle d’Estrées (the king’s mistress), the poet Malherbe and the Cardinal Duperon (Oeuvres de J.A. Ingres, Albert Magimel, ed.).
		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.

	Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres
		Ingres was a perfectionist to the point of obsession, seeking precision and mastery of form - particularly with regard to the costume and accessories.
		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.
		Ingres did not involve himself in the wider intellectual scene of his time, his main contacts being with a small group of intimates, including his favoured pupils; it is from the latter that we gain our impressions of Ingres the man as well as Ingres the artist.

		Ingres is the first complete study of the life and work of Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres (1780-1867), an artist whose rich, illusionistic surfaces dominated French painting for much of the 19th century.
		These include Ingres' admiration of Raphael and early Italian painting, the remarkable nuances of line and bold color combinations that earned him designations such as "primitive", the arresting eroticism of his images, and the participation of his devoted studio in his work.
		Ingres is a magnificently illustrated (over 300 illustrations, more than 200 in full color) and authoritative volume, the most complete work ever published on Ingres and one of the most thorough monographic studies of any painter of his era.

		The third of the Riviere family portraits is that of the fifteen year-old girl whom Ingres referred to as the "ravishing daughter." Unlike the portrait of her mother, this image of femininity seizes a quality of youthful candor just on the brink of a womanhood that Mlle.
