Eye Candy for Today: Ingres portrait:
Following up on my recent Eye Candy post about an Ingres graphite portrait, I couldn’t help but think of this well known and beautiful portrait painting.
Comtesse d’Haussonville, by Jean-August-Dominique Ingres, on Google Art Project. Use controls at lower right to zoom in.
Note the way he has carefully handled the reflection of the back of her head in the mirror and the attention given the incidental objects in the room.
Here is the painting on the site of the Frick Collection.
