"Duke Ferdinand-Philippe of Orleans" is an oil on canvas portrait painting created by the heralded French Neo-classical painter, Jean August Dominique Ingres. painting, dating from 1845, captures Ferdinand-Philippe, Duke of Orleans, who was a prominent French royal figure as the eldest son of King Louis-Philippe I.

Ingres completed this distinguished portrait two years after the Duke's untim death in a carriage accident, basing it on earlier studies done from life. The painting serves not only as a commemorative representation but also embodies 19th-century political commentary and the virtues of royal responsibility and civic duty.

In this portrait, Duke Ferdinand-Philippe is depicted in military attire, indicative of his role as a military leader, specifically his service in the Algerian war. His gaze is direct and solemn, reflecting the gravitas of his station, while the painterly treatment of textures – from the gleam of metal to the softness of fabric – showcases Ingres's technical mastery.

Noted for its classicism, the painting is an excellent example of Ingres’s style, combining his characteristic attention to detail with a Neoclassical composure and restraint, devoid of extraneous decoration or sentimentality. It is a tribute to an individual whose potential was cut short, representing him as an embodiment of royal dignity and solemnity.

"Duke Ferdinand-Philippe of Orleans" remains an important work in Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres's oeuvre, signifying his significant contributions to portraiture, and illustrating his ability to infuse portraiture with a sense of story, character, and depth. The painting is held in the Musée du Louvre, Paris, where it continues to be revered for its technical precision, contextual depth, and as a poignant tribute to a prince who had once been a beacon of hope for a struggling French monarchy.
