Additional description by Nationalmuseum Stockholm website (© - by Nationalmuseum Stockholm - Nationalmuseum Stockholm)

English: Ingres’ neo-classical style is characterized by pure contours and figures based on classical sculpture and on Raphael. This small sketch is a study for a larger painting. The large version won Ingres the first prize in 1801 in the competition for the major Rome Scholarship. The scene is from the Iliad. Achilles, holding the lyre on his lap, gives his friends, headed by Odysseus in a red cloak, an astonished welcome. The friends are sent to negotiate with Achilles, who has rebelled against Agamemnon by laying down his weapons, visible to the left in the picture. Ingres var den mest övertygade nyklassicisten i sin generation. Rena konturer, kyliga färger och gestalter baserade på antik skulptur och Rafaels måleri var kärnan i hans stil. Den lilla skissen är en förstudie till en större målning. Med den stora versionen vann Ingres 1801 första pris i tävlingen om det stora Rom-stipendiet. Scenen är ur Iliaden. Akilles, med lyran på knäet, välkomnar häpen sina vänner, anförda av Odysseus i röd mantel. Dessa är utsända för att förhandla med Akilles som i trots mot storkungen Agamemnon lagt ned sina vapen, synliga i bildens vänsterkant.
