Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres (1780 – 1867) was a French Neoclassical painter who favored the traditional Neoclassical art over Romanticism, a movement which was quickly becoming popular during his life. Ingres studied under the Neoclassical artist Jacques-Louis David, whose work had a profound impact on the young painter. He became an accomplished artist of both historical scenes and portraits, though it was the latter that he is commonly remembered by.
