"Charles Hayard and His Daughter Marguerite" is a portrait painting by the French Neoclassical artist Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, completed in 1849. The painting depicts Charles Marcotte d'Argenteuil, a French civil servant and a friend and patron of Ingres, alongside his daughter Marguerite Marcotte. Ingres was renowned for his portrait work, which was characterized by a polished precision and a cool, linear control that contrasted with the more emotive style of his Romantic contemporaries.

The painting is a testament to Ingres's skill in capturing the essence of his sitters through meticulous attention to detail and his ability to render fabrics and textures with remarkable realism. In the portrait, Charles Hayard is portrayed in a seated position, exuding an air of dignified composure, while his daughter Marguerite stands beside him, suggesting a sense of familial intimacy and affection. The composition is balanced and harmonious, with a clear emphasis on the sitters' refined elegance and social status.

Ingres's portraits often reflected the values and ideals of the French bourgeoisie during the July Monarchy and the Second French Empire, and "Charles Hayard and His Daughter Marguerite" is no exception. The work is housed in a prominent art collection, contributing to the understanding of Ingres's oeuvre and the broader context of 19th-century French portraiture.

As with many of Ingres's portraits, this painting is celebrated for its technical mastery and the way it encapsulates the artist's dedication to the Neoclassical tradition, while also hinting at the evolving tastes of the period. It remains an important example of Ingres's portraiture and continues to be studied for its aesthetic qualities and its place within the history of art.
