Certain authorities on art are said to regard the great Montalbanais as a victim of daltonism in other words, colour-blind! In company of the mere amateur, this authority turns with relief from the master's historical and allegorical pieces to his wonderfully speaking portraits.
The great Montalbanais has been finally received into the national Walhalla. The father of the so-called French Raphael, writes his biographer, was not even a Giovanni Santi. Joseph Ingres, in the words of M. Mommeja, was un petit ornemaniste, a fabricator of knick-knacks, turning out models in clay, busts in plaster, miniatures and other trifles for sale at country fairs.
