The story of Comtesse d'Haussonville

Ingres accepted very few portrait commissions by 1845, and this was one of two he took on. He had sketched Louise de Broglie two or three years earlier and abandoned an oil version when she became pregnant. Her descendants sold the finished portrait to the dealer Georges Wildenstein, and the Frick Collection bought it in 1927.

Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres

Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres was a French Neoclassical painter. Ingres was profoundly influenced by past artistic traditions and aspired to become the guardian of academic orthodoxy against the ascendant Romantic style. Although he considered himself a painter of history in the tradition of Nicolas Poussin and Jacques-Louis David, it is his portraits, both painted and drawn, that are recognized as his greatest legacy. His expressive distortions of form and space made him an important precursor of modern art, influencing Henri Matisse, Pablo Picasso, and other modernists.
