Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres
La Princesse de Broglie
Somehow the portrait was always seen as just as base as it was lucrative by artist. I know portrait painters who diminish that part of their work. But Ingres (who suffered from the same sickness) was incredibly good. Simply some marvellous painting, and much more interesting than his mythological and historical things.
