INGRES
(1778-1867)
PLATE I.—LA VIERGE À L’HOSTIE
(In the Louvre)
This picture of La Vierge à l’Hostie
is a repetition, with variations, of another painted by Ingres in 1840 for the Czar Nicholas, in which he had represented on either side of the Virgin the two patron saints of Russia, St. Nicholas and St. Alexander. In the Louvre picture, which is signed J. Ingres, 1854,
the two saints have been replaced by two angels. Probably in no other picture from his hand is the artist’s passionate admiration for Raphael so clearly displayed.
