Which neoclassical painter known for 'The Apotheosis of Homer' was a student of David?

The neoclassical painter known for The Apotheosis of Homer who studied under David was Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres.

Ingres entered Jacques-Louis David’s Paris studio in 1797 and remained there for about four years. David was the leading French painter of the revolutionary era and a central figure in Neoclassicism. Although Ingres later developed a highly individual style, David’s emphasis on disciplined drawing, classical subject matter, and carefully constructed compositions shaped his early training.

Ingres won the Prix de Rome in 1801 for The Ambassadors of Agamemnon in the Tent of Achilles, though financial difficulties delayed his departure for Italy until 1806. His later career combined history painting with exceptionally precise portraiture. He became one of the most influential defenders of classical ideals as Romanticism gained popularity.

The Apotheosis of Homer, completed in 1827, shows the ancient poet being crowned while figures representing major writers and artists gather around him. The monumental painting was commissioned for the Louvre and is now held there. Ingres is sometimes confused with David because both were leading Neoclassical painters; however, David was the teacher, while Ingres was the later-generation pupil and artistic heir.
