In a parody of this work, Walter Barnes photographed Edgar Degas perched on the stoop of a house with three women standing above him. The structure in the background of this work features a marble relief of an eagle with a woman on its back, while its foreground includes a pointing figure in black that was copied from a 1650 self- portrait by Poussin. Commissioned by Charles X for a ceiling in the Louvre, this painting shows Raphael led by the hand toward the title figure, whose own output is symbolized by two women sitting at his feet, one with a sword and the other with an oar. Nike prepares to crown the enthroned title man of this painting with a laurel crown as a crowd of great artists and poets look on. For 10 points, name this Ingres painting of a Greek bard's moment of immortality.
