JAD Ingres

JAD Ingres 1835-1840
I thought I'd pick this and put it on here b/c its pretty related to what we're working with in class and its by Ingres. The drapery is amazing the shadows up front are nice and dark and the further parts of the figure are in space the more crisp the lines. I like that it is unfinished and you can  see that Ingres left the figures head for last, I've heard he apparently spent hours upon hours on the face.
