The monograph is devoted to the life and work of Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, one of the most significant artists of the XIX century neoclassical period. Andrew Shelton, the author of the monograph, in his shrewd and unbiased review covers 70 years of creative activity of the artist. He tells about the Энгре on the background of the unrest that engulfed France in the XVIII-XIX centuries: the revolution of 1789, the coronation of Napoleon, Restoration, and revolution of 1830, the ending of the July monarchy; the revolution, established in 1848, the beginning of the Second Republic, and the basis of the second Empire, led by Napoleon III in 1852; as well as on the background of a declining power, which has had an impact on his patrons and orders from their side. E. Shelton in detail stopped on the criticism addressed to Энгру in life, and writes about how sometimes amorphous torsos and elongated limbs of his figures reflect the obsession of the artist perfection of form and his disregard of the realism. Painting and outstanding graphics Ingres heavily influenced by artists such as Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, Pablo Picasso, Cindy Sherman and many others.
