Ingres paid close attention to his sitter's costume: a fashionable open coat and dress with leg-of-mutton sleeves.Description
While living in Rome, Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres began making commissioned graphite portraits as a way of providing additional income. He aspired to a career as a history painter, however, and made such works only as gifts for friends after achieving professional success. This sheet was a gift for its sitter's husband, a famous archaeologist to whom Ingres dedicated it at lower right. The subject of the drawing, Antoinette-Claude Houdon, was the youngest daughter of Jean-Antoine Houdon (1741–1828), an important 18th-century French sculptor. Using the style he developed for such works, the artist drew in stark, confident lines, with no apparent erasing or correction.- probably 1830-1854Désiré Raoul-Rochette [1790–1854] (sitter’s husband), Paris, by descent to his wife, Madame Désiré Raoul-Rochette1854-1878Madame Désiré Raoul-Rochette, née Antoinette-Claude Houdon [1790–1878], Paris, by descent to her grandson, Raoul Perrin1878-1910Raoul Perrin [1841–1910], by descent to his widow, Madame Raoul Perrin1910-1912Madame Raoul Perrin [?–1912], by descent to her son, Edmond Perrin1912-by 1918by descent to her son, Edmond Perrin [d. 1919]1918-1927(Wildenstein & Co., Inc., New York, sold to the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, OH)1927-Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland, OHProvenance Footnotes1 All this information is from Naef 1979, 5:162.
