Ulysses

Französische Malerei 1809–1830, 1827

This painting shows a man's upper body and his face, seen from below. The man is positioned in profile, facing the right side of the painting. He has light brown skin, a long, straight nose, a thick, dark beard, and curly dark hair extending from under a yellow helmet that is tipped upward on top of his head. The man is wearing a warm reddish-orange garment, and his left hand is in shadow, clenched against his chest. The background is a muted blend of yellows and greens, and the signature "Ingres" is visible in the lower right corner of the artwork.
