"The Source" (French: "La Source") is an iconic oil painting by the French Neoclassical artist Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, completed in 1856. It is widely regarded as one of Ingres's masterpieces and a prime example of 19th-century academic art. The painting depicts a nude female figure standing in a classical contrapposto pose, holding a pitcher from which water flows. She is set against a dark, nondescript background that serves to highlight the purity and luminosity of her form.

Ingres's work on "The Source" began in the early 1820s, and it was not completed until several decades later. The painting is celebrated for its refined draughtsmanship, smooth brushwork, and the idealization of the female form, which reflects Ingres's fascination with both the art of the Renaissance and the ancient classical world. The figure's serene expression and the harmonious proportions of her body exemplify the artist's skill in blending realism with idealized beauty.

Measuring 163 cm × 80 cm (64 in × 31 in), "The Source" is housed in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, France. The work has been influential in the history of art, inspiring both contemporaries and later artists. It has been subject to various interpretations, ranging from a symbol of purity and innocence to an embodiment of the artist's search for perfection in form. "The Source" continues to be a subject of scholarly interest and is frequently included in discussions of Ingres's oeuvre and the broader context of French academic painting.
