Summary "Ingres" by A. J. Finberg is a biography written in the early 20th century, which delves into the life and work of the renowned French painter Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. The book explores Ingres' influences, his unconventional style, and his significant contributions to the art world, highlighting his unique balance between realism and idealism in his paintings. Finberg provides a thorough examination of Ingres' artistic journey, beginning with his early life in Montauban, his training in Toulouse, and his eventual move to Paris where he studied under Louis David. The biography details his struggles and triumphs, including his prestigious awards and royal commissions, such as his notable portraits of Napoleon and his compelling historical pieces. It also touches on Ingres' personal life, including his marriage and the impact of his relationships on his artistic output. Through critical analysis, Finberg presents Ingres as a pivotal figure who straddled the transition from classicism to romanticism, ultimately solidifying his place in the pantheon of great European artists.
