Before Gustave Moreau, this man painted a craggy scene where a nude character with his foot on a rock extends a finger to give the answer "man" to a riddle in his Oedipus and the Sphinx.
Before Gustave Moreau, this man painted a craggy scene where a nude character with his foot on a rock extends a finger to give the answer "man" to a riddle in his Oedipus and the Sphinx. In other paintings, he showed a lance-wielding man riding over water on a hippogriff and a detailed Greek temple behind a winged woman who places a wreath on a seated poet. This artist of Roger Freeing Angelica and The Apotheosis of Homer also showed a peacock fan in the hand of a harem girl who looks over her shoulder at the viewer, and whose over-long back has to have a few extra vertebrae. For 10 points, name this French neoclassicist painter of The Grand Odalisque.
