Opposites attract in the unorthodox combination of Romanticism and Neoclassicism in the remarkable artwork of Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. Originally from France, Ingres (1780 – 1867) was deeply influenced by Raphael, crafting sensuous, elegant works abounding in calligraphic lines and exceptional texture. Famous for his portraits, Ingres preferred painting women, striving to reveal their inner beauty. He also painted historical and religious subjects, and influenced many future icons, including Degas, Renoir and Picasso. Ingres’ unparalleled artworks are displayed at the Louvre, the Metropolitan Museum and the Frick Collection in New York.
This giclée print delivers a vivid image with maximum color accuracy and exceptional resolution. The standard for museums and galleries around the world, giclée (French for “to spray”) is a printing process where millions of ink droplets are sprayed onto the paper’s surface. With the great degree of detail and smooth transitions of color gradients, giclée prints appear much more realistic than other reproduction prints. The high-quality paper (235 gsm) is acid free with a smooth surface.
