"In the Tepidarium" is a celebrated oil painting by the Dutch-born British artist Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema, completed in 1881. Renowned for his meticulous rendering of ancient Roman, Greek, and Egyptian scenes, Alma-Tadema's work is characterized by its classical themes and exquisite attention to detail. This particular painting depicts a young woman lounging in a tepidarium, a warm room used in Roman bathing complexes to acclimate the body to the heat of the caldarium or hot room.

The subject is shown reclining on a marble bench, draped in a loose, diaphanous garment that reveals her form beneath. She is adorned with jewelry and holds a strigil, a tool used by Romans to scrape oil and sweat from the skin after bathing. The setting is richly decorated with intricate mosaics and architectural details, evoking the opulence of the Roman Empire. The use of light and shadow, along with the warm tones of the painting, enhances the sense of languid luxury and relaxation.

"In the Tepidarium" is a testament to Alma-Tadema's fascination with the leisurely life of the ancient world and his ability to recreate it with historical accuracy and artistic elegance. The painting is also notable for its sensual overtones, capturing the beauty of the female form in a moment of private repose. It is a fine example of Victorian neoclassicism and is held in high regard for its technical brilliance and its contribution to the romanticized view of antiquity prevalent during the 19th century.

The painting is part of the collection at the Lady Lever Art Gallery in Port Sunlight, Merseyside, England, and continues to be a subject of admiration for both its artistic merit and its portrayal of ancient Roman culture. Sir Lawrence Alma-Tadema's "In the Tepidarium" remains an enduring piece of Victorian art, reflecting the era's infatuation with classical antiquity and its ideals of beauty and luxury.
