''The Turkish Bath'' (''Le Bain Turc'') is an oil painting by the French Neoclassical artist Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, completed between 1852 and 1859, with a final reworking in 1862. The painting depicts a group of nude women in the bath of a harem, and it is known for its sensual portrayal of the female form as well as its orientalist theme. The work measures 108 cm by 110 cm and is round in shape, a format known as a tondo.

Ingres was inspired by his fascination with the exotic and erotic aspects of the Ottoman Empire, a common interest in 19th-century European art known as Orientalism. The painting is a culmination of themes Ingres explored in his earlier works, such as ''The Valpinçon Bather'' (1808) and ''La Grande Odalisque'' (1814). ''The Turkish Bath'' combines historical accuracy with imaginative idealization, as Ingres never visited a Turkish bath himself and based his depiction on literary sources and other artworks.

The composition of ''The Turkish Bath'' is notable for its intricate arrangement of figures and the use of light and shadow to accentuate the curvature of the female body. The women are portrayed in various poses, some lounging, others playing music or interacting, creating a sense of languid movement within the enclosed space of the bath.

Upon its exhibition, the painting received mixed reviews, with some critics praising its beauty and craftsmanship, while others condemned it for its perceived eroticism and lack of moral message. Today, ''The Turkish Bath'' is considered one of Ingres's masterpieces and a significant work in the canon of 19th-century French painting. It is held in the collection of the Louvre Museum in Paris, where it continues to be studied and admired for its technical brilliance and its complex interplay of reality and fantasy.
