The Lyrics
I hang with the Ingres crowd
I go with Ingres crowd tableaux
I’d hang up the Ingres’s, proud
I no go for that schmoe Watteau
Jean’s my guy, made that clear, works I cheer
Palette’s fine, great hues shine
His “Odalisque” is discreet
I’ve great respect for his portraiture feats
The way he captures light
Makes me an Ingres crowd-type acolyte
I hang with the Ingres crowd
At Delacroix, look askance
That’s because what made Ingres proud
Snub nose at movement of Romance
He’s my guy, made that clear, works I cheer
I declare, love this fare
If a show I were to mount
I’d feature this Neoclassical fount
Others’ works imitative
Can’t compete with this Montaugan native.
Ingres-proud!
He’s my guy, made that clear, works I cheer
Such panache, flash and dash!
His tableaux have real good lines
Unlike Vince, he didn’t swig turpentine
For him, the drum I bang
Museum’s nowhere without an Ingres
I go with Ingres crowd tableaux
I’d hang up the Ingres’s, proud
I no go for that schmoe Watteau
Jean’s my guy, made that clear, works I cheer
Palette’s fine, great hues shine
His “Odalisque” is discreet
I’ve great respect for his portraiture feats
The way he captures light
Makes me an Ingres crowd-type acolyte
I hang with the Ingres crowd
At Delacroix, look askance
That’s because what made Ingres proud
Snub nose at movement of Romance
He’s my guy, made that clear, works I cheer
I declare, love this fare
If a show I were to mount
I’d feature this Neoclassical fount
Others’ works imitative
Can’t compete with this Montaugan native.
Ingres-proud!
He’s my guy, made that clear, works I cheer
Such panache, flash and dash!
His tableaux have real good lines
Unlike Vince, he didn’t swig turpentine
For him, the drum I bang
Museum’s nowhere without an Ingres

The subject matter and OS choice was quirky and refreshing and your familiarity with late classical French art well displayed. I get that nice feeling of an artist with depth, and I don't mean Ingres. Classy stuff. 555
