"La Forge de Vulcain; et une Chasse au Sanglier, d'après des Bas-reliefs Antiques" is a pair of artworks by the renowned French Neoclassical painter Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres. Created during the early 19th century, these works reflect Ingres's fascination with classical antiquity and his mastery in rendering the human figure with precision and idealization. The first piece, "La Forge de Vulcain" (The Forge of Vulcan), depicts the Roman god of fire and metalworking, Vulcan, in his forge, crafting weapons and armor for the gods of Olympus. The second, "Une Chasse au Sanglier" (A Boar Hunt), illustrates a dynamic scene of a boar hunt, a common theme in ancient bas-reliefs that often symbolized bravery and nobility.

Ingres, who was a pupil of Jacques-Louis David, is known for his meticulous technique and the smooth finish of his paintings, as well as his strong emphasis on linearity. These characteristics are evident in both works, which showcase his ability to draw inspiration from classical sources while infusing them with his own artistic sensibilities. The paintings are notable for their adherence to the Neoclassical style, which sought to revive the ideals of ancient Greek and Roman art, considered by many artists of the time as the pinnacle of artistic achievement.

The compositions of "La Forge de Vulcain" and "Une Chasse au Sanglier" are informed by Ingres's study of ancient bas-reliefs, which he encountered during his time at the French Academy in Rome. His interest in antiquity was not merely imitative; rather, he sought to understand the underlying principles of classical art and to reinterpret them in a contemporary context. The works are exemplary of Ingres's engagement with historical themes and his lifelong commitment to the values of clarity, harmony, and beauty.

While the exact dates of creation for these works are not specified, they are part of Ingres's extensive oeuvre that contributed to his reputation as one of the leading artists of his time. The paintings are significant for their representation of Ingres's artistic philosophy and for their role in the broader discourse of Neoclassicism in European art history. They continue to be studied for their technical prowess and their embodiment of the Neoclassical aesthetic, which sought to convey moral virtue and timeless values through the medium of art.
