One of Ingres' closest students
Combine the purity of the line with sensitive chromatism
Eugène Emmanuel Amaury Pineu-Duval, known as Amaury-Duval, entered Ingres' studio in 1825. A prolific portraitist and religious painter, he received important monumental commissions while developing ancient figures and worldly effigies. His painting seeks a balance between sovereign drawing, smooth modeling and delicate color. The "Amaury-Duval" selection notably compares The Birth of Venus and Family Portrait. His reading favors space.
In Amaury-Duval, the line governs the figure but the color restores its softness, its flesh and its silence.
