Ingres's influence on later generations of artists was considerable. One of his heirs was [[Degas]], who studied under [[Louis Lamothe]], a minor disciple of Ingres. In the 20th century, his influence was even stronger. [[Pablo Picasso|Picasso]] and [[Henri Matisse|Matisse]] were among those who acknowledged a debt to Ingres; Matisse described him as the first painter "to use pure colours, outlining them without distorting them."<ref>Arikha 1986, p. 11.</ref> The startling effects of Ingres's paintings—the collapsing of traditional depth and perspective and the presentation of figures "like the figures in a deck of cards"—were criticized in the 19th century but were welcomed by the avant-garde in the 20th century.{{Sfn|Jover|2005|page=247}}
An important retrospective of works by Ingres was held at the Salon d'automne in Paris in 1905, which was visited by Picasso, Matisse, and many other artists. The original and striking composition of "The Turkish Bath", shown for the first time in public, had a visible influence on the composition and poses of the figures in Picasso's ''[[Les Demoiselles d'Avignon]]'' in 1907.{{Sfn|Jover|2005|page=247}} The exhibit also included many of his studies for the unfinished mural ''l'Age d'or'', including a striking drawing of women gracefully dancing in a circle. Matisse produced his own version on this composition in his painting ''La Danse'' in 1909.{{Sfn|Jover|2005|page=247}} The particular pose and colouring of Ingres's ''[[Portrait of Monsieur Bertin]]'' also made a reappearance in Picasso's ''Portrait of [[Gertrude Stein]]'' (1906).{{Sfn|Fleckner|2007|page=78}}

[[Barnett Newman]] credited Ingres as a progenitor of [[abstract expressionism]], explaining: "That guy was an abstract painter&nbsp;... He looked at the canvas more often than at the model. [[Franz Kline|Kline]], [[Willem de Kooning|de Kooning]]—none of us would have existed without him."<ref>Schneider 1969, p. 39.</ref>

Pierre Barousse, the curator of the Musée Ingres, wrote:<blockquote> ...One realizes in how many ways a variety of artists claim him as their master, from the most plainly conventional of the nineteenth century such as [[Alexandre Cabanel|Cabanel]] or [[William-Adolphe Bouguereau|Bouguereau]], to the most revolutionary of our century from Matisse to Picasso. A classicist? Above all, he was moved by the impulse to penetrate the secret of natural beauty and to reinterpret it through its own means; an attitude fundamentally different to that of David&nbsp;... there results a truly personal and unique art admired as much by the [[Cubism|Cubists]] for its plastic autonomy, as by the [[Surrealism|Surrealists]] for its visionary qualities.<ref>Barousse et al. 1979, p. 7.</ref></blockquote>

Ingres is one of the most cited artists in the interpictural compositions of the Peruvian painter [[Herman Braun-Vega]].<ref>{{Cite book |title=Ingres, regards croisés |last=Cuzin |first=Jean-Pierre |publisher=Mengès - RMN |year=2006 |isbn=978-2-84459-129-6 |location=Paris |pages=208 |language=fr |last2=Salmon |first2=Dimitri |quote=[Les] références picturales privilégiées [de Braun-Vega sont] Matisse, Ingres, Cézanne, Picasso, Goya, Rembrandt}}</ref><ref>{{Cite book |title=Ingres et les modernes |publisher=Somogy |year=2008 |isbn=978-2-7572-0242-5 |pages=264 |language=fr |type=Catalog of the exhibition organized in 2009 together by the Québec Fine Arts National Museum and the Ingres Museum in Montauban, France |quote=L'œuvre de Braun-Vega regorge d'allusions ingresques depuis qu'il a découvert les dessins du Montalbanais au Louvre en 1972}}</ref> The latter dedicated an entire exhibition to him in 2006 on the occasion of the year dedicated to Ingres in France museums.<ref>{{Cite magazine |title=Exposition : Le peintre Braun‑Vega à Beurnier |date=2006-10-07 |magazine=Le Pays |url=https://braunvega.com/picture?/2362/ |language=fr |quote=À l'occasion de l'année Ingres, Bernard Fauchille, le directeur des musées de Montbéliard, a choisi de présenter « Bonjour Monsieur Ingres » au musée d'art et d'histoire Beurnier-Rossel.
