"Odalisque with the Slave (copy after Ingres)" is a painting by the American artist William Macgregor Paxton (1869–1941), which pays homage to the 19th-century French Neoclassical painter Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres. Paxton, known for his skillful portrayal of the human figure and his involvement with the Boston School of painting, created this work as a study of Ingres' original composition, "Odalisque with Slave" (1842), which itself is celebrated for its depiction of an exotic and sensual subject that was popular in European academic art during the 19th century.

In Paxton's rendition, he captures the essence of Ingres' style, focusing on the smooth rendering of flesh, the intricate detailing of fabrics, and the serene yet charged atmosphere that characterizes Ingres' work. The term "odalisque" refers to a woman in a harem, and it was a common motif in Orientalist art, which romanticized and often sexualized the cultures of the Eastern Mediterranean and Middle East.

Paxton's "Odalisque with the Slave" is an example of American artists' engagement with European art traditions and their efforts to master the techniques of the Old Masters. The painting not only reflects Paxton's technical prowess but also provides insight into the cultural exchanges and artistic dialogues that were prevalent among artists of the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

As a work that bridges the gap between American and European art, Paxton's painting is significant for its contribution to the understanding of transatlantic influences in art history. It also serves as a testament to the enduring appeal of Ingres' work and the academic tradition, which continued to inspire artists even as the art world was on the cusp of modernism.
