"Study for Princesse Albert de Broglie, born Joséphine Éléonore Marie Pauline de Galard de Brassac de Béarn" is a preparatory work by the renowned French Neoclassical artist Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. Created as a preliminary study, this artwork was part of the process leading to the completion of the celebrated portrait "Princesse de Broglie" (1853), which captures the elegance and refined grace of the French aristocracy during the Second Empire.

Ingres, known for his meticulous technique and the smooth finish of his paintings, often executed detailed studies to perfect the composition and lighting of his portraits. This study showcases Ingres's skill in rendering the delicate features and the sophisticated demeanor of his sitter, Joséphine de Broglie. The daughter of a French count and the wife of Prince Albert de Broglie, a prominent diplomat and statesman, Joséphine was an embodiment of the cultivated and aristocratic world that Ingres frequently depicted in his works.

The study is significant not only for its connection to the final portrait, which is hailed as one of Ingres's masterpieces, but also for providing insight into the artist's creative process. It reveals Ingres's attention to detail and his dedication to capturing the essence of his subject's character and social standing. The work is a testament to the artist's ability to convey texture, form, and the subtleties of light and shadow, which contribute to the lifelike presence of the sitter.

As a piece of art historical importance, "Study for Princesse Albert de Broglie" offers a window into the 19th-century French portraiture tradition and the meticulous craftsmanship of Ingres, whose influence extended well beyond his lifetime. The study and the final portrait are often discussed in the context of Ingres's broader oeuvre, which includes iconic works such as "La Grande Odalisque" and "The Turkish Bath," and they continue to be admired for their exquisite beauty and technical precision.
