The Turkish Bath

The Turkish Bath is an 1862 painting by the 82-year-old Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres, showing nude women in a harem. Originally rectangular, it was altered to its present tondoform by the artist in 1863. Its erotic content did not provoke a scandal (as compared, say, withManet's publicly exhibited 1863 Déjeuner sur l'herbe) since for much its life it has remained in private collections. It is now in the Louvre.
