Abstract
John Flaxman's influence on French painting of the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries is generally acknowledged. Although this influence is most noticeable in the work of Ingres, it has recently been discerned by Pruvost-Auzas and Ternois1 in the work of Girodet as well. They discuss similarities between Flaxman's Tragedies of Aeschylus and Girodet's early Ossianic studies, and note that both artists were in Italy at the same time. They do not, however, show that the two artists actually met.
