"The Bather of Valpinçon" is an oil painting by the French Neoclassical artist Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, completed in 1808. It is also known as "La Grande Baigneuse" or "The Big Bather." This work is one of Ingres's early masterpieces, showcasing his skill in rendering the human form with a smooth, polished finish that became a hallmark of his style. The painting depicts a solitary, nude female figure seen from the back, seated on white drapery against a dark, muted background. Her pose is serene and contemplative, with her head turned slightly to the side, as she reaches behind her to touch her hair.

The Bather of Valpinçon is celebrated for its sculptural quality and the sensuous curves of the subject's body, which exemplify Ingres's dedication to classical ideals of beauty and form. The painting's composition, with its emphasis on the purity of line and the play of light and shadow, reflects Ingres's admiration for the works of Renaissance artists such as Raphael, as well as his study of ancient sculpture.

Measuring 146 cm × 97.5 cm (57.5 in × 38.4 in), the painting is part of the permanent collection of the Louvre Museum in Paris. It was acquired by the French state in 1879 and has since become one of Ingres's most recognized and studied works. "The Bather of Valpinçon" has been influential in the development of both 19th-century academic art and later modernist movements, with its timeless quality and focus on the idealized human figure. The painting is often discussed in the context of Ingres's other nudes, such as "La Grande Odalisque" and "The Turkish Bath," which further explore themes of exoticism and eroticism within the framework of Neoclassical aesthetics.
