JEAN-AUGUSTE-DOMINIQUE INGRES - Canvas Prints
Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres was a French Neoclassical artist born in Southern France. He was a skilled portrait artist and draughtsman who made a lasting mark in Pre-Modernist art. Dominique found great inspiration in historical and biblical events, especially with the figures surrounding these events. Among his most compelling works are “Jesus Among the Doctors” and “Portrait of Napoléon on the Imperial Throne.” Interestingly, Dominique believed the use of color was secondary to any painting: that it was the subject matter that created a masterpiece, versus the coloring technique.
