"Monsignor Gabriel Cortois de Pressigny" is a portrait painting by the French Neoclassical artist Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, completed in 1826. The artwork depicts Gabriel Cortois de Pressigny (1745–1823), who was a French prelate and diplomat, serving as the Bishop of Saint-Malo and later as the Archbishop of Besançon. Ingres, renowned for his meticulous technique and the polished finish of his portraits, captures the Monsignor in his ecclesiastical regalia, reflecting both his high social status and his religious office.

The portrait is executed with Ingres's characteristic precision and attention to detail, particularly evident in the rendering of the textures of the fabrics and the sitter's physiognomy. Ingres's portraiture was highly sought after by the elite of his time for its ability to convey the dignity and grace of the subject, and this painting is no exception. It showcases the artist's skill in combining realism with an idealized aesthetic, a hallmark of his mature style.

"Monsignor Gabriel Cortois de Pressigny" is significant not only as a work of art but also as a historical document, providing insight into the religious and social hierarchies of early 19th-century France. The painting is part of Ingres's body of work that contributed to his reputation as one of the foremost portraitists of his era, reflecting the values and ideals of the Bourbon Restoration period.

The painting is held in a public collection, allowing for its appreciation by scholars and the general public alike. It continues to be studied for its artistic merit and as an example of Ingres's profound impact on the development of portrait painting in the 19th century.
