Comment on Jean-Marie-Dominique Ingres (1780-1867) and Bertel Thorvaldsen (1770-1844)
According to us, the only outline of such work is to be found in the last paragraphs of a Danish book where the author points out the similarities between Ingres’s and Thorvaldsen’s ways of working after antique art works and drawings of English sculptor Flaxman; see Jan Zahle, Thorvaldsens afstøbninger efter antikken og renæssancen, Copenhague, Thorvaldsens Museum, 2012, p. 142-144.
