Summary :
In the trunks of personal archives bequeathed to his birth town, amongst thousands of sketches and preparatory works for his paintings, the painter Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres deliberately put a violin.
A modest violin, a practice violin, marked by the years.
Is it really the instrument on which he shared his second passion with his friends and musicians Pagani, Gounod or Liszt ?
This film offers us to share the life of this man and artist through the many bridges he built with music, his dear music, “the art that filled my life with a lovely smell.”
