Biography: Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres was born in 1780 in Montauben, in southwest France. He died in 1867 in Paris at the age of 87. His father was a painter of miniatures and it was from him that Ingres gained his early art training. During the Revolution, his father took him to Toulouse, where he studied at the Royal Academy of Painting, Sculpture, and Architecture. After 1797, he studied under Jacques-Louis David. Ingres didn't achieve critical acclaim until 1824, when he was seen as the supporter of the classical ideal over against the Romanticism of Eugene Delacroix and Theodore Gericault. Among Ingres' students were Theodore Chasseriau, Henri Lehman, and Hippolyte Flandrin, none of whom were more than minor artists. However, Degas, Matisse and Picasso all expressed a debt to Ingres' influence.
