About the piece
Painted in 1845, this masterpiece by Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres captures the Comtesse d'Haussonville with remarkable precision and grace. The work is celebrated for the artist's ability to render textures—from the shimmering silk of the countess's gown to the soft velvet of the upholstery—and the clever use of a mirror to provide a double view of the sitter's profile.
