This book is a reassessment of the role of Ingres studies in the writing of nineteenth-century art history. The title Fingering Ingres refers to a remark of Jean Cassou, the French art critic, political militant and founding director of the Musee National d'Art Moderne, in which he wrote of Ingres' 'caressing' his materials with the tip of his 'finger-nail'. The volume pays tribute to Ingres' historiographical enigma in bringing together a set of essays that scratch at and perhaps puncture the surface of his received framings.

Combining scholarship from different generations of the contemporary critical, social and semiotic histories of art, Fingering Ingres offers a freshly virtuoso and deconstructive approach to the art-historical genre of the artist's monograph
