Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres (pronounced ("Ang", rhymes with "bang", with a hint of the "r", but the final "es" is not pronounced") (August 29, 1780 - January 14, 1867) was a French Neoclassical painter. Although he thought of himself as a painter of history in the tradition of Nicolas Poussin and Jacques-Louis David, by the end of his life it was his portraits, both painted and drawn, that were recognized as his greatest legacy.
