Ingres Jean Auguste Dominique
Ingres Jean Auguste Dominique is a French Neoclassical oil painting artist , engraver, draftsman, printmaker & violinist. born 29 August 1780 - died 14 January 1867. icon of cultural conservatism in 19th-century France. Ingres became the principal proponent of French Neoclassical painting after the death of his mentor, Jacques-Louis David. His cool, meticulously drawn works constituted the stylistic antithesis of the emotionalism and colourism of the contemporary Romantic school. As a monumental history painter, Ingres sought to perpetuate the Classical tradition of Raphael and Nicolas Poussin. The spatial and anatomical distortions that characterize his portraits and nudes, however, anticipate many of the most audacious formal experiments of 20th-century Modernism. Also known as: J.A.D.
