About the piece
This 1808 oil study by French Neoclassical master Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres captures the powerful profile of a bearded figure. Wrapped in a rich red cloak that contrasts sharply with the warm tones of the skin and the neutral, textured background, the work showcases Ingres' early mastery of light and human anatomy.
