Jean Pierre Cortot 1815

"Jean Pierre Cortot" is a portrait of the French sculptor Jean Pierre Cortot painted in 1815 by Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, a prominent figure in Neoclassical art. This portrait showcases Ingres' mastery of detail and precise rendering of form, characteristic of his style. The subject's features are meticulously depicted, with a focus on the subtle nuances of expression and the play of light and shadow across his face. The painting's small size, typical of Ingres's work, further enhances the intimacy and focus on the individual.
