"Fumée d'Ambre Gris" (Smoke of Ambergris) is an oil painting by the American expatriate artist John Singer Sargent, created in 1880. The painting is a significant work within Sargent's oeuvre, showcasing his fascination with exoticism and his mastery of capturing the effects of light. The title refers to the aromatic substance ambergris, which was highly valued for its use in perfumery and as an aphrodisiac.

The painting depicts a solitary woman dressed in white, standing in a North African interior, presumably in Morocco or Algeria, where Sargent traveled in the late 19th century. She is enveloped in the ethereal smoke of burning ambergris, which adds a mystical quality to the scene. The woman's attire and the intricate details of the room reflect the artist's attention to the cultural and aesthetic nuances of the region.

Sargent's use of light and shadow in "Fumée d'Ambre Gris" is particularly noteworthy, as the soft illumination enhances the texture of the woman's garment and the smoke's delicate swirls. The painting's composition and the subject's contemplative pose contribute to an overall sense of serenity and introspection.

"Fumée d'Ambre Gris" is held in the collection of the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Williamstown, Massachusetts. It has been praised for its evocative portrayal of a moment of private ritual and for its technical brilliance, and it continues to be studied as an example of Orientalist art from the period. The work is emblematic of the cultural cross-currents and the romanticized view of the East that were prevalent among European and American artists and audiences in the late 19th century.
